Feast of the Weeks

3rd Book of Moshe *Lev 23:15-22

"And from the morrow after the Sabbath, from the day that you brought the sheaf of the wave offering, you shall count for yourselves: seven completed Sabbaths.

Until the morrow after the seventh Sabbath you count fifty days, then you shall bring a new grain offering to YAHUWAH. Bring from your dwellings for a wave offering two loaves of bread, of two-tenths of an ephah of fine flour they are, baked with leaven, first-fruits to YAHUWAH.

And besides the bread, you shall bring seven lambs a year old, perfect ones, and one young bull and two rams.

They are a burnt offering to YAHUWAH, with their grain offering and their drink offerings, an offering made by fire for a sweet fragrance to YAHUWAH.

And you shall offer one male goat as a sin offering, and two male lambs a year old, as a peace offering. And the priest shall wave them, besides the bread of the first-fruits, as a wave offering before , besides the two lambs. They are set-apart to YAHUWAH for the priest.

And on this same day you shall proclaim a set-apart gathering for yourselves, you do no servile work on it – a law forever in all your dwellings throughout your generations.

And when you reap the harvest of your land do not completely reap the corners of your field when you reap, and do not gather any gleaning from your harvest. Leave them for the poor and for the stranger. I am YAHUWAH your Elohim. ”

2nd Book of Moshe *Ex 23:14-17

Three times in the year you are to observe a festival to Me:

Guard the Feast of Unleavened Bread. Seven days you eat unleavened bread, as I commanded you, at the time appointed in the renewed moon of Abib – for in it you came out of Mizraim (Egypt) – and do not appear before Me empty-handed; and the Feast of the Harvest, the first-fruits {feast of the weeks} of your labours which you have sown in the field; and the Festival of the Ingathering at the outgoing of the year, when you have gathered in the fruit of your labours from the field

Three times in the year all your males are to appear before the Sovereign.

Book of Acts 2:1-21

And when the day of the Festival of Weeks had come, they were all with one mind in one place. And suddenly there came a sound from the heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.

And there appeared to them divided tongues, as of fire, and settled on each one of them. And they were all filled with the Qodesh Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them to speak.

Now in Yerusalem there were dwelling Yahudim, dedicated males from every nation under the heaven. And when this sound came to be, the crowd came together, and were confused, because everyone heard them speak in his own language.

And they were all amazed and marvelled, saying to each other, “Look, are not all these who speak Galileans? And how do we hear, each one in our own language in which we were born? Parthians and Medes and Eylamites, and those dwelling in Aram Naharayim, both Yahudah and Kappadokia, Pontos and Asia, both Phrygia and Pamphulia, Egypt and the parts of Libya around Cyrene, visitors from Rome, both Yahu-dim and converts, Cretans and Arabs, we hear them speaking in our own tongues the great deeds of El.”

And they were all amazed, and were puzzled, saying to each other, “What does this mean?” And others mocking said, “They have been filled with sweet wine.”

But Kepha, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice and said to them, “People of Yahudah and all those dwelling in Yerusalem, let this be known to you, and listen closely to my words. For these people are not drunk, as you imagine, since it is only the third hour of the day. But this is what was spoken by the prophet Yo’El: ‘And it shall be in the last days, says El, that I shall pour out of My Spirit on all flesh. And your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young males shall see visions, and your old males shall dream dreams, and also on My male servants and on My female servants I shall pour out My Spirit in those days, and they shall prophesy. And I shall show wonders in the heaven above and signs in the earth beneath: blood and fire and vapour of smoke.

The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the coming of the great and splendid day of YAHUWEH. And it shall be that everyone who calls on the Name of YAHUWEH shall be saved.
