What is a Jubilee and What's so Special About it?
In the Old Testament, the Israelites celebrated a Jubilee every fifty years. It was a special time of forgiveness and a reminder of God’s providence. Today, the Catholic Church recognizes a Jubilee every twenty-five years to ensure that every generation can experience this Holy Year of forgiveness and reconciliation.
When the Pope opens the Holy Door of St. Peter’s Basilica to begin the Jubilee, pilgrims will be welcomed to pass through them symbolically following Jesus’ words in St. John’s Gospel, Chapter 10, “I am the door. If anyone enters by me, he will be saved and will go in and out and find pasture.” During the Jubilee Year, pilgrims walking through the Holy Doors have a special chance for a plenary indulgence!
