Leviticus 25 verse 8-12
The Year of Jubilee
8 “‘Count off seven Sabbath years—seven times seven years—so that the seven Sabbath 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. It shall be a jubilee for you; each of you is to return to your family property and to your own clan. 11 The fiftieth year shall be a jubilee for you; do not sow and do not reap what grows of itself or harvest the untended vines. 12 For it is a jubilee and is to be holy for you; eat only what is taken directly from the fields.
8 سات سبت کے سال یعنی 49 سال کے بعد ایک اَور کام کرنا ہے۔
9 پچاسویں سال کے ساتویں مہینے کے دسویں دن یعنی کفارہ کے دن اپنے ملک کی ہر جگہ نرسنگا بجانا۔
10 پچاسواں سال مخصوص و مُقدّس کرو اور پورے ملک میں اعلان کرو کہ تمام باشندوں کو آزاد کر دیا جائے۔ یہ بحالی کا سال ہو جس میں ہر شخص کو اُس کی ملکیت واپس کی جائے اور ہر غلام کو آزاد کیا جائے تاکہ وہ اپنے رشتے داروں کے پاس واپس جا سکے۔
11 یہ پچاسواں سال بحالی کا سال ہو، اِس لئے نہ اپنے کھیتوں میں بیج بونا، نہ خود بخود اُگنے والے اناج کی کٹائی کرنا، اور نہ انگور توڑ کر جمع کرنا۔
12 کیونکہ یہ بحالی کا سال ہے جو تمہارے لئے مخصوص و مُقدّس ہے۔ روزانہ اُتنی ہی پیداوار لینا کہ ایک دن کی ضروریات پوری ہو جائیں۔
My point of view about above verses
God told Moses to tell Israelite that they need to observe 50th year as Jubilee year as its falls after 49 years of seven Sabbath years - so land will take rest for two consecutive years - its also shows people trust on their Lord - God also said you have to set free all servants in this year so that they can join their families again.
It should be a year of Jubilee for all the inhabitants of the land - not required to sow and reap anything - Let land enjoy its Sabbath
God is merciful and all wise Lord - He knows how to deal mankind to get best out of them for themselves and for others
Let God give us wisdom to understand his word and apply in our lives
We need to live in this world as God wants us to live - we have to do what he is telling us to do- as it is in our advantage in the long run
May God bless all those who are obeying His commandments
