Leviticus 25:9-10

The Jubilee Year was given to the Israelites so their poor might be released from debts they were unable to pay. Every fiftieth year all debts were pardoned, and those who had sold themselves into slavery were freed. Land lost through poverty was restored to the family originally owning it.

This was done on the Day of Atonement, thus connecting this holy day with a release from bondage. This is typical of man's future Atonement release from spiritual bondage—release from all spiritual debts and sins—freedom from the temptations and deceptions of Satan and his demons—and of the restoration to each nation of its own God-ordained land (Acts 17:26).
