The Birth of a Movement
Today Pastor Michael is continuing the study of Jewish holidays and today’s focus is on the “Feast of Weeks”.
Matthew Henry said of this festival, “The feast of Weeks was held in remembrance of the giving of the law, fifty days after the departure from Egypt; and looked forward to the outpouring of the Holy Ghost, fifty days after Christ our Passover was sacrificed for us. On that day the apostles presented the first-fruits of the Christian church to God. To the institution of the feast of Pentecost, is added a repetition of that law, by which they were required to leave the gleanings of their fields. Those who are truly sensible of the mercy they received from God, will show mercy to the poor without grudging.”
Thanking God for the harvest He has blessed us with!
Today’s bible verses are found in Leviticus 23: 15-22.
