Title: Sabbatical

Eric Peabody asked 04 October 2004

I am searching for an acronym or apronym for "SABATICAL." It must be biblically meaningful.

Did you miss a 'b' in there?
As I remember it, the idea of a sabbatical is connected with the number 7 - debts were cancelled, it seems and/or crops were given to the landless - if the land wasn't left fallow

SABBATICAL (1)
Seventh's A Biblical Blessing - Apparently The Israelites Cancelled All Liabilities

SABBATICAL (2)
Seventh-year Agricultural Bounty - Brought About To Insure Charity Amongst Landless

I need a bit of assistance, i think.

Eric, are you out there?
What do you think of these so far.
I'm not exactly finding this an easy (or enjoyable) word to be working on.
So, if you could give me some feedback I'd be very grateful.
