f1ent which WIS part Ol inc law '
must be fulfilled. The Jubilee year
came around every 80 years and at
such times the trumpet was sounded
throughout The land announcing the 7
Jubilee year; all morlgaged and sold
lands were to be returned and took
possession of their old homestead. i'm
fact all had chance to start life an
over again.
"When We come into the lanu
which | give YOU then shall the land
keep a sabbath unto the Lord; sis
wears shall thou SOW thy field and
years shall thou prune Thy vineyard
and gather in the fruits thereof, but
in the seventh year Orom entering
Canaan) shall be SABBATH Of resi-
unto the Lord Uev. 2j:2,3,D. Every
seventh year was SABBATH year and
times 7 SABBATH years equals forly
nine years and the 50lh year would
usher in the the year of Jubilee Oev.
2j:S).
According TO Jehovah's plan The
children of Isreal were TO keep per
fcclly 20 Of these Jubilees at the end
of which the great Antilypical Jubi-
lee on world wide scale would be
uShcrcd in, but the JEWS were a
stiff neck people and desired 10 have
their own way. They kept some Of
the Jubilee years in a half hearted
way and soon failed to give the land
its SABBATH of rest. Therefore the Lord
told them that He would punish them
for il and give The land its SABBATH o.
rest (be sure to read Jer. 25:l1-29:lO
also . Chron. 3G:l7-2D.
The 10 years usually referred TO as
the 20 years captivity, in Babylon, is
scriptorially styled the 70 years deS-
lalion Of the land. The plain mean
ing of this 10 years of desolation is
that the IsrcaliteS having failed TO
keep the Jubilee SABBATH years God
put them in prison and kept them
there for 20 years that The land might
lay deSolale and keep the SABBATH to
fulfill three score and ten years Lev,
2G:3i. 30, 49,
, Each year of the 20 years Of desc.
lation represented a Jubilee year; in
other words Jehovah made that stiff
, neck people pay off in full. He made
them keep a Jubilee SABBATH year for
all those they had half way kept and
; also for those yet in the future which
He knew they would not properly
/ keep.
, Since the Lord, through the typical
} Jubilee arrangement and the 20 years
of deSolation, has given us the key
, we can easily locate ourselves upon
| the stream of time and tell just about
, when the great Aniilypical Jubilee
/ should begin. The typical Jubiles
Q occurred every years, therefore 20
, years of dcSolalion. which represent
ed The full number of typical Jubilees
/ from the lime the Isrealles landed Z
C in Canaan TO the time the great Anti
g type should be ushered in-70 times
5 80 equals $500 years. According to
,. bible chronology $500 years from
G the landing of The ISrcalilcs into Ca
c naan would reach down to 1925. The
h Jews were a typical people. They
n represented. in a sense, the world of
Il mankind.
5 Another important feature of the
d typical arrangement of Isreal was
o the Staying of the Pascal Lamb and
: the dcliycrancc of the typical first
& born. II was absolutely necessary
2, thai the typical First born be deliver
c ed before The Isrcailes could leave
II Egypt and go into Canaan 10 enjoy
d the typical Jubilee arrangements. So
o it is in the Anlilype. The Lamb of
e God had to first be slain and all the
v anliiypical First born, the coDSecrat-
II ed believers and foot-Step followers
& of Jesus, have taken refuge under the
blood of the Lamb during this dark
n night of the Gospel age and they all
At must be delivered before the antilyp-

Ie Kind friends beg of you to pic
