This book begins with an analysis of the historical origins of the jubilee institution in ancient Israel, and then traces the reinterpretation of the jubilee and the text of Leviticus 25 through the Old Testament, the Second Temple literature, and the Qumran documents. It demonstrates that, with the passage of time, the socio-economic implementation of the jubilee is increasingly de-emphasized in favor of an eschatological interpretation, in which the jubilee itself functions as a type of the final age, and cycles of jubilee years are employed to calculate when this age will arrive.Supplements to Vetus Testamentum ;v. 115.Jubilee (Judaism)Sabbatical year (Judaism)Jubilee (Judaism)Sabbatical year (Judaism)296.4/9Bergsma John Sietze1582311MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910784507703321The jubilee from Leviticus to Qumran3864587UNINA
