The Holy Year of Jubilee is a historical and ceremonial account of the Roman Jubilee, written by Herbert Thurston and originally published in 1900. The book provides a detailed description of the history and significance of the Jubilee, a special year of remission of sins and universal pardon in the Roman Catholic Church that occurs every 25 years. Thurston explores the origins of the Jubilee, tracing its roots back to ancient Jewish tradition and examining its development in the Christian Church. He also delves into the various ceremonies and rituals associated with the Jubilee, including the opening of the Holy Door, the procession of the Holy Veil, and the conferring of indulgences. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and practice of the Roman Catholic Church, and provides a fascinating glimpse into one of its most important and enduring traditions.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
