In Jesus’ day Shavuot (Pentecost) was the best-attended of the great traveling feasts because traveling conditions were at their best. That meant that there was never a more international, diverse gathering in Jerusalem than on this day.

Jews from nearly every known nation were there. And that’s when the Holy Spirit chose to birth the church, but you probably already knew that!

But what you might not know is that there something in the Levitical instructions that strongly hinted at the future church instructions way back in Moses’ time.

What was the hint?

Great question! Let’s explore!

This episode digs deeper into “Pentekostes” (Πεντηκοστῆς meaning ‘Fiftieth’) in Acts 2:1.

Acts 2:1 - “When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place.” (NIV)
