“Jubilee”
“The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to bring good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim release to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to set free those who are oppressed, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.”
When Jesus tells people he comes to aid the oppressed and those in difficulty, he is reaching back into Isaiah. The spirit here is one of Jubilee. What is Jubilee? Why is this a radical thought for those in his presence?
