About the name Jubilee
Jubilee is derived from the Hebrew word ‘yovel’, meaning ‘ram’s horn’, which was blown to announce the biblical Year of Jubilee in ancient Israel. The Year of Jubilee, described in the Hebrew Bible, was a special year of emancipation and restoration that occurred every fifty years, during which slaves were freed and land was returned to its original owners. The name Jubilee is thus closely associated with themes of liberation, renewal, and restoration, and is sometimes used in religious contexts to evoke these ideas.
