jubilee
Every fiftieth year, being the year following the completion of each seventh sabbath of years, at which time all the slaves of Hebrew blood were liberated, and all lands which had been alienated during the whole period reverted to their former owners. The joyful commemoration held on the fiftieth anniversary of any event; as, the jubilee of Queen Victoria's reign; the jubilee of the American Board of Missions. A church solemnity or ceremony celebrated at Rome, at stated intervals, originally of one hundred years, but latterly of twenty-five; a plenary and extraordinary indulgence grated by the sovereign pontiff to the universal church. One invariable condition of granting this indulgence is the confession of sins and receiving of the eucharist. A season of general joy. A state of joy or exultation. One celebrated upon the completion of sixty, or, according to some, seventy-five, years from the beginning of the thing commemorated. Related Definitions:

Jubilee Quotations
I am concerned because even in the past two years that were the jubilee years, I have seen evident signs which show that the people are still in great difficulties, and there are things that still need to be remedied and looked after in many areas. Bhumibol Adulyadej Life is one long jubilee. Ira Gershwin You can't serve up hearts like cherries jubilee. Leonard Bailey |
