  • The Talmud's Two Jubilees and Their Relevance to the Date of the Exodus
    Westminster Theological Journal 68 (2006): 71-83 The Talmud’s Two Jubilees and Their Relevance to the Date of the Exodus The Babylonian Talmud mentions two, and only two, occasions for the observance of a Jubilee. The question of whether there actually were Jubilees at the times specified, or whether these passages reflect a later projection of ideas back into a previous age, is a matter of some importance. It bears on the question of when Leviticus was written, because many scholars date the composition of Leviticus, particularly of the so-called “H” or Holiness Code that established the Jubilee and Sabbatical years (Lev 17–26), to exilic or post-exilic times. An exilic or post-exilic date for the Holiness Code would be difficult to maintain if it could be shown that Sabbatical years or Jubilee years were observed before the exile, since the observation of such rituals in the ancient Near East always presupposes their written codification. One way to evaluate whether the two Jubilees mentioned in the Talmud were genuine historical events is to examine the dates assigned to them. The two passages are in b. ‘Arak. 12a, mentioning a Jubilee in the time of Ezekiel, and in b. Meg. 14b, mentioning a Jubilee in the time of Josiah. The ‘Arakin passage is as follows: “Is it not written: In the five and twentieth year of our captivity, in the beginning of the year, in the tenth day of the month, in the fourteenth year after that the city was smitten. Now which is the year the beginning of which falls on the tenth of Tishri? Say: This is the jubilee year.” 1 The argument the Talmud presents here is that the verse quoted (Ezek 40:1) gave the day as both “the beginning of the year” (Rosh HaShanah or New Year’s Day) and also as the tenth of the month.

Tübingen: Mohr, 2003. MILLENNIUM, JUBILEE AND HUMAN HISTORY UNDER GOD FOR JEWS IN THE MIDDLE AGES Asher Finkel, Ph.D. The year 1240 is the beginning of the sixth millenium in the Jewish calendar. This year witnessed the Mongol invasion from the East, defeating the Germans and Poles, as well as the year that saw the new ascendancy of the Islamic power. The turn of events was perceived by Nachmanides as the appearance of the "fearsome and terrible beast" in Daniel's vision (Chapter 7) that preceded the coming of the Son of Man, the messianic figure in Jewish apocalypticism. Nachmanides1 portrays the Islamic empire as a "powerful kingdom that is closer to the truth than the former ones," referring to the other theriomorphic empires in Daniel's prophecy. Islam was perceived by Spanish Jewry to be a monotheistic faith, with emphasis on God's unity. Jews faced both Muslims and Christians on the Iberian peninsula, and they were also aware of the distinction between them.

Jubilee Shabbat has a special meaning for us in the Jewish world. As you know, the year of Jubilee proclaimed in the Torah took place every fifty years. It was a time when all debts were cancelled, land was returned, and people were freed. The Jubilee vision continues to serve as a powerful way for people of faith and conscience today to promote economic and social justice in our broken world. The spirit of Jubilee needs to be taken into the politics and economics of every nation on earth, including our own. As a part of Jubilee Shabbat, communities nationwide will examine the roots of Jubilee in the Torah as we read Parsha Behar Bechukotai and explore how we as Jews can band together to break the chains of debt and poverty and transform our world.

  • Sabbatical Jubilee to Address the Wealth
    Preventing the Wealth Gap: A Study of the Sabbatical and Jubileei by Rabbi Renée Bauer Interfaith Coalition for Worker Justice, Director The wealth gap, the differential between the rich and the poor, has increased dramatically since the 1970’s. The disparity in wealth in this country is one of the great moral crises of our time. The data are stark. As of 2013, just over 400 Americans have more money than over 158 million of their fellow citizens. The gap between rich and poor has not always been this great is continuing to grow. This is evidenced by the fact that in 1980 the average American CEO earned 42 times as much as his or her average worker and in 2001 a CEO earned 531 times as much as the average worker. ii The Tanakh, the Hebrew Bible, which repeatedly commands us to care for vulnerable, poor and powerless, also contains laws for preventing the gap between the rich and the poor to grow. These are the laws of the sabbatical and jubilee years. There is a debate about whether these laws were ever enacted and if they were it was for a limited period. We study these laws not to interrogate their historicity but rather to open a discussion about the inequality crisis in our country and to understand the moral call to address it in our day. Sabbatical Year: 1 The Lord spoke to Moses on Mount Sinai: 2 Speak to the Israelite people and say to them: When you enter the land that I assign to you, the land shall observe a sabbath of the Lord.

(2002 Third Year Paper) Citable link http://nrs.harvard.edu/urn-3:HUL.InstRepos:8852119 Terms of Use This article was downloaded from Harvard University’s DASH repository, and is made available under the terms and conditions applicable to Other Posted Material, as set forth at http:// nrs.harvard.edu/urn-3:HUL.InstRepos:dash.current.terms-of- use#LAA Introduction Every waking moment should be governed by the laws of the Torah. Every action must accord with Torah principles. Torah law dictates which shoe one should put on first.1 There are also various laws relating to the bathroom.2 The Torah also teaches not only that one must pray three times a day, but also that the three prayers must each be recited during their respective specific time periods, as laid out by Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.3 With this in mind, it should come as no surprise that the Torah regulates what a Jew may eat and drink. Upon completing one of its renditions of the Jewish dietary laws, the Torah states that Jews have an obligation ‘‘to distinguish,’’ or ‘‘l’havdil’’ (in the original Hebrew) ‘‘between the contaminated and the pure, and between the animal that may eaten and the animal that may not be eaten.’’4 Rashi5 explains that the obligation goes beyond merely reading through the Torah passages that discuss these laws; rather one must learn the laws until he knows them, recognizes them, and is an expert in them.6 It is with this in mind that I now begin to scratch the surface of the Jewish dietary laws.

    POLICING THE BORDERS OF IDENTITY AT THE MORMON MIRACLE PAGEANT Kent R. Bean A dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy December 2005 Jack Santino, Advisor Richard C. Gebhardt, Graduate Faculty Representative John Warren Nathan Richardson William A. Wilson ii ABSTRACT Jack Santino, Advisor While Mormons were once the “black sheep” of Christianity, engaging in communal economic arrangements, polygamy, and other practices, they have, since the turn of the twentieth century, modernized, Americanized, and “Christianized.” While many of their doctrines still cause mainstream Christians to deny them entrance into the Christian fold, Mormons’ performance of Christianity marks them as not only Christian, but as perhaps the best Christians. At the annual Mormon Miracle Pageant in Manti, Utah, held to celebrate the origins of the Mormon founding, Evangelical counter- Mormons gather to distribute literature and attempt to dissuade pageant-goers from their Mormonism. The hugeness of the pageant and the smallness of the town displace Christianity as de facto center and make Mormonism the central religion. Cast to the periphery, counter-Mormons must attempt to reassert the centrality of Christianity. Counter-Mormons and Mormons also wrangle over control of terms. These “turf wars” over issues of doctrine are much more about power than doctrinal “purity”: who gets to authoritatively speak for Mormonism. Meanwhile, as Mormonism moves Christianward, this creates room for Mormon fundamentalism, as small groups of dissidents lay claim to Joseph Smith’s “original” Mormonism. Manti is home of the True and Living Church of Jesus Christ of Saints of the Last Days, a group that broke away from the Mormon Church in 1994 and considers the mainstream church apostate, offering a challenge to its dominance in this time and place.

  • WHEN IS the JUBILEE YEAR? JESUS’ PROCLAMATION of the JUBILEE Calculating the True Date of the Jubilees by Luis B
    WHEN IS THE JUBILEE YEAR? JESUS’ PROCLAMATION OF THE JUBILEE Calculating the true date of the Jubilees by Luis B. Vega [email protected] www.PostScripts.org ‘Then Jesus came to Nazareth, where He had been brought up. As was His custom, He entered the Synagogue on the Sabbath. And when He stood up to read, the Scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed to Him. Unrolling it, He found the place where it was written: 1. The Spirit of the Lord is on Me, 2. because He has anointed Me 3. to preach Good News to the poor. 4. He has sent Me to proclaim Liberty to the Captives 5. and recovery of sight to the blind, 6. to release the oppressed, 7. to proclaim the Year of the LORD’s favor. Then He rolled up the scroll, returned it to the attendant, and sat down. The eyes of everyone in the Synagogue were fixed on Him, and He began by saying, Today this Scripture is fulfilled in your hearing.’ -Luke 4:16-20 The purpose of this study is to present the theory that strongly suggests when the true years of the Jubilees occur. Or a better question is, at the end of when Sabbatical Cycle will Jesus be returning? One Jubilee Year can be determined as the year that corresponded in Jesus’ life, when Jesus read aloud in the Synagogue at Nazareth the portion of the Isaiah scroll. It was also at the start of His ministry and based on Jesus’ birthday. With this timeline identified, one can possibly calibrate all Jubilee year, past and future.

  • EZEKIEL 40:L AS a CORRECTIVE for SEVEN WRONG IDEAS I N
    Andrews Uniwrsio Seminary Stndic~,Vol. 44, No. 2,265-283. Copyright 8 2006 Andrews University Press. EZEKIEL 40:l AS A CORRECTIVE FOR SEVEN WRONG IDEAS IN BIBLICAL INTERPRETATION RODGER C. YOUNG St. Louis, Missouri Ezekiel 40:l is often viewed by commentators as a mere chronological note that can be passed over quickly before tahng up the formidable task of interpreting the last nine chapters of Ezekiel's book. Yet a careful analysis of this verse, when combined with some knowledge of the various events and institutions to whch the verse makes explicit or implicit reference, shows that it is rich in information that sheds light on the events and institutions to whch it refers. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate that the five pieces of chronological data given in the verse provide useful correctives to several ideas that have gained widespread currency in biblical and hstorical interpretation, while at the same time allowing us to replace those ideas with counterparts that are more in keeping not only with the information in this verse, but also with the teachng of other Scriptures that deal with these matters. It dlbe shown that this one verse, used in conjunction with a small amount of external hstorical data, contradicts the following seven wrong ideas: The idea that Jerusalem fell to the Babylonians in 586 B.c. The idea that Ezekiel reckoned the calendar year to start in Nisan. The idea that Judah used Nisan years for the reign length of kings. The idea that Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, was always on the First of Tishn.
