225 - REAPING THE AFTERGROWTHS OF THE JUBILEE YEAR IN AN ORDINARY YEAR

Seventeen Jubilees were counted by our ancestors from the time when they first entered the Land of Israel to the time of the Exile.* During the second Temple, although the Jubilees were not observed, since the tribes did not live on their soil (see Pos. Comm. 136, Vol. I, p. 144), the years of the Jubilee were still counted, in order to sanctify the Sabbatical Years (ibid. 3).
