What is the difference between the jubilee and the sabbath year?

The Sabbatical Year occurred on a cycle of seven years, in which every seventh year was a year when the land was allowed to lie fallow (Leviticus ch.25) and debts were released (Deuteronomy ch.15).
After seven such cycles an extra year, the 50th year, was declared the year of Yovel (Jubilee). In that year any land which had been sold reverted to its original owners, thus ensuring that there could never be a landless class. Even if your parents were profligate and got into debt and had to sell their land, you would eventually have your land back and be able to make a new start.
Unfortunately, although the social benefits of the Sabbatical and Jubilee years are great, human nature meant that they were not always kept.

Why is the Torah important in sabbath day?
The Torah establishes the Sabbath with commandments to keep the Sabbath day, to remember the Sabbath day, and constraining what may be done on the Sabbath. And, in the Jewish liturgy that emerged from this framework, the Sabbath morning service includes a Torah reading where, traditionally, about 1/52 of the Torah is read, so that over the course of the year, every Jew who attends Sabbath services on a regular basis will hear (and, we hope, learn from) the entire Torah.
