1. Restoring the Timetable of Sabbatical and Jubilee Years from the Ezekiel’s account
Eze 40:1 In the twenty-fifth year of our exile, at the beginning of the year, on the tenth of the month, in the fourteenth year after the city was smitten, on that same day the hand of יהוה came upon me and He brought me there.
Babylonian Destruction of the 1st Temple and Jerusalem on 588/587BC on the 9th Day of 5th Month (summer) which is a Shemitah year: 588/587BC+14years=574/573BC Eze 40:1 which IS referring to the 67th Jubilee Year from Adam ; And from 1st exile at 599/598BC+25years=574/573BC. is a Jubilee Year ( Yom Kippur is on the tenth of the month of the agricultural new year.)
“Shmita” in Hebrew means “release”—the “release” from servitude or indebtedness, and to desist one year from field work. (Lev 25; 26:33-43; Deut 15; Jer 25:11; 29:10; Dan 9; Ezra 1; Neh 10:31; Zech 1:12; 7:5.)
