to proclaim
The Greek word used here is "κηρύξαι" (kēryxai), which means to herald or announce publicly. In the context of Jesus' ministry, this proclamation is not just a mere announcement but a divine declaration of God's intervention in human history. The act of proclaiming is central to the mission of Jesus, as it signifies the authoritative and transformative message of the Gospel. Historically, heralds were trusted messengers of kings, and here, Jesus is the ultimate herald of God's kingdom, bringing a message of hope and salvation.

the year
The term "year" in this context is not limited to a literal 365-day period. It refers to a designated time or season, often associated with the concept of Jubilee in the Old Testament (Leviticus 25:10). The Jubilee year was a time of liberation, restoration, and forgiveness, where debts were canceled, and slaves were freed. This concept is deeply rooted in Jewish tradition and symbolizes a period of divine grace and mercy. Jesus' reference to "the year" signifies a new era of spiritual renewal and redemption brought about by His presence and work.

of the Lord’s
The phrase "of the Lord’s" emphasizes divine ownership and authority. The Greek word "Κυρίου" (Kyriou) denotes the Lord, referring to God Himself. This highlights that the favor being proclaimed is not of human origin but is a sovereign act of God. It underscores the divine initiative in the salvation process, where God, in His sovereignty, chooses to extend grace and favor to humanity through Jesus Christ. This divine favor is a testament to God's unchanging nature and His desire to reconcile with His creation.

favor
The word "favor" is translated from the Greek "δεκτόν" (dekton), which means acceptable or favorable. This term conveys the idea of God's grace and goodwill towards humanity. In the scriptural context, it signifies a time when God is particularly disposed to bless and save His people. Theologically, this favor is manifested in the person and work of Jesus Christ, who embodies God's grace. It is a reminder of the unmerited love and kindness that God extends to us, inviting us into a relationship with Him. The "favor" of the Lord is a central theme in the Gospel, offering hope and assurance of God's benevolent plan for salvation.

(19) The acceptable year of the Lord.--The primary reference was to the year of Jubilee, when land that had been mortgaged returned to its owner, and debts were forgiven, and Israelite slaves released (Leviticus 25:9-10). It was to our Lord, as it had been to Isaiah, the type of the "year" of the divine kingdom. A somewhat slavish literalism, which the study of St. John's Gospel (Luke 2, 5, 6, 7, 12) would have dispelled in an hour, led some of the Fathers to infer from this that our Lord's ministry lasted but for a single year.
