I stayed with the existing format. That is why it looks similar. You previously claimed that I gave too much information.

---

The important changes are:

---

1. This name is chosen among Christians specifically in reference to

---

The Jewish Year of Jubilee (with a very short summary).

---

It is not picked for the more general

---

"celebration, rejoicing" or "any season or occasion of rejoicing or festivity..." that this article currently proposes.

---

2. Having both

---

From the Middle French jubile, from the Latin jubilare meaning 'to shout or sing out joyfully' or 'rejoice'.

---

and

---

Middle English jubile, from Old French, from Late Latin iúbilaeus, the Jewish year of jubilee,
alteration (influenced by iubilâre, to raise a shout of joy), of Greek iobêlaios, from iobêlos, from Hebrew yôbêl.

---

in the same article is redundant. The latter of the two is more complete, especially if you tack on (lit. "trumpet-blast").

---

3. The headings, BIBLICAL ENGLISH and POPULAR CULTURE, separate the two name sources better.

---

4. Adding (created in 1989) is relevant to the second source.

---

As an editor, you surely understand the value of these changes. I made it so you could copy & paste the body of the article to keep it in its original format.
