Proclaiming Liberty
in the Jubilee Year

Deliverance? Proclaimed Liberty? From What?
       
Yehuveh more than understands our needs and heart cries, and He has promised: “Call upon Me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify Me.” Awesome promise, but in a small way this and similar promises are the band-aids for small incidental problems. At a grander level, Yehuveh wants to deliver us “out of all tribulation.” Thus He includes the promise of such all-inclusive deliverance in the anointed assignment of Isaiah 61:1-3: Yehuveh hath anointed me . . . to proclaim liberty to the captives.” Psalms 50:15; 1 Samuel 26:24. Compare 2 Chronicles 33:12, 13; Job 22:27; Psalms 22:23; 34:3, 4; 50:23; 66:13-20; 77:2; 86:7; 91:15; 102:2; 107:6-13, 19, 28; Zechariah 13:9.
        The wording of
Isaiah 61:1 [“Yehuveh hath anointed me . . . to proclaim liberty.”] is unmistakably identical to Leviticus 25:10: “And ye shall hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout all the land unto all the inhabitants thereof: it shall be a jubilee unto you; and ye shall return every man unto his possession, and ye shall return every man unto his family.” What is this anointed assignment of Isaiah 61:1? Are we only anointed to proclaim the time of this coming deliverance—the coming Jubilee Year? Or are we also being specifically anointed to clearly identify the “inherited lies, vanity, and things wherein there is no profit” from which we are to be delivered?
        
To proclaim something as significant as the coming Jubilee Year and release, we must know with certainty both when it occurs and what it involves. Can we know this? Indeed we can! We already know this next Jubilee Year spans 22 March 2012 to 9 April 2013, as discussed in Section 8: Article 4: Anointed to Proclaim Liberty, and for every anointed spokesman it is crucial that we know these dates in order to fulfill our assignment, yet there is an even greater issue at stake here. We must also clearly know from what we are proclaiming liberty and deliverance!
        As discussed in
Section 8: Article 4: Anointed to Proclaim Liberty, the Hebrew words used in Isaiah 61 and Leviticus 25 are identical: proclaim [translated from Strong’s Hebrew Dictionary entry H7121: qara’, a primary word] means “to call out to, to address by name,” and liberty [from entry H1865: derowr] means “freedom; spontaneity of outflow.” [Compare entry, H1866: derowr, “the swift, a kind of swallow.”] Drawing these two insights to their full extent, it becomes quite clear that Yehuveh is not merely discussing an immediate and short-lived “fix.” The freedom of  movement enjoyed by a swallow—this is the kind of liberty Yehuveh Himself is even now proclaiming to every person “throughout all the land.”
        The
“captives,” according to this Hebrew word [entry H7628: shebiy] are “the exiled; the captured.” Under The Great Red Dragon [see Section 6: Articles 9, 10, and 11], the social-religious-economic-political system now controlling this planet, Yehuveh’s children are held captive by regulation, taxation, perverted economics, unjust laws, confusing social standards, and blatant spiritual lies. Yehuveh has anointed His chosen ones to declare freedom to all of these captives.
        Pulling together the insights gained from all these words, our mission is to
“Proclaim by name the release of the Jubilee Year.” Solemn assignment! But this anointed assignment at this time is far more than telling subjugated people that their social and economic oppression will end by a certain time. According to Daniel 9:24-27, this coming Jubilee Year [22 March 2012 to 9 April 2013] will be unlike any Jubilee Year since this planet was created.
        The present assignment
“to proclaim liberty to the captives” is expressly amplified in this coming Jubilee Year by the fact that this year ends the explicitly “cut off” [“determined”] Mega-Jubilee Cycle of Daniel 9:24-27. In this coming Jubilee Year Yehuveh has already “determined . . . to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy.” The deliverance to be proclaimed and executed involves oppression, of course, but by prophecy it necessarily also involves ending all iniquity [all attitudes of rebellion], transgression [non-patterned incidental wrong choices], and sin [life-patterns of wrong choices], and thereby bringing “in everlasting righteousness.” Isaiah 61:1-3; Daniel 9:24-27.
