Leviticus
25:8-10a
8
“‘Count off seven sabbaths of years—seven
times seven years—so that the seven sabbaths of years
amount to a period of forty-nine years. 9 Then have the trumpet
sounded everywhere on the tenth day of the seventh month;
on the Day of Atonement sound the trumpet throughout your
land. 10 Consecrate the fiftieth year and proclaim liberty
throughout the land to all its inhabitants.
Luke 4:18-19, 21
18
“The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed
me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim
freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind,
to release the oppressed, 19 to proclaim the year of the Lord’s
favor.20 Then he rolled up the scroll, gave it back to the
attendant and sat down. The eyes of everyone in the synagogue
were fastened on him, 21 and he began by saying to them, ‘Today
this scripture is fulfilled in your hearing.’”
