pentecost – Jesus Christ is New Paschal Lamb of God

Three Pilgrimage Festivals of Passover, Shavuot and Sukkot

Seven Species in Israel we all recognize the seven species listed are wheat, barley, grape, fig, pomegranates, olive (oil), and date (date honey) (Deuteronomy 8:8). Their first fruits were the only acceptable offerings in the Temple.

We all read Ruth 2:23 USCCB

23So she (Ruth) stayed gleaning with Boaz’s young women until the end of the barley and wheat harvests.

I want to share you all read study and learn first five books (Scroll) of Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy. I believe Jesus is New Covenant Messianic Fulfillment quoted from Old Covenant. Beautiful Parallels.

Three Pilgrimage Festivals of Passover, Shavuot and Sukkot are importantly recognized we all read more familiar whole Sacred Scriptures and Traditions of Jesus teach us all more spiritual comprehension what is Three Pilgrimage Festivals of Passover, Shavuot and Sukkot elaborately describe more clarification:

First, what is moedim in Hebrew?
Answer: “Appointed Times”. God (Elohim) and His Divine “Appointed Times” aka seasons according Genesis 1:14 first appeared:

14Then God said: Let there be lights in the dome of the sky, to separate day from night. Let them mark (oth) the seasons (moedim), the days (yom) and the years (shanah). Please check Genesis 1:14 Interlinear

Moedim are plural. Moed is singular. Moedim literally means “festivals” (“feasts”) i.e.: YHWH and His Sabbath & Seven Major Feasts.

The Hebrew moedim (plural) literally follow the agricultural cycles of harvests throughout the whole year.

Three Pilgrimage Harvests on Agricultural Calendar:

1. New Barley Harvest (March-April) begin on Paschal (“Easter”, Passover, Pesach) until barley ends, new wheat harvest begin example of the Book of Ruth 2:23 USCCB.

2. New Wheat Harvest (May-June) begin on Shavuot (50th day, Pentecost).

3. Grapes Harvest (September-October, “Fruit Harvest”) begin on Sukkot (Feast of Tabernacle, Festival of Booths, Feast of Ingathering).

Here are two excellent article I find more interesting information might help:

a. Ancient Israel Festivals (Feasts)

b. Harvest Seasons of Ancient Israel

Yom haBikkurium (FirstFruits) always is on 16th of Nisan (Aviv) same time Sefirat haOmer (Counting the Omer) is the powerfully anointing key after Chag haMatzah (Feast of Unleavened Bread) is High Shabbat (High Holy Day) on 15th of Nisan after Pesach (Passover, 14th of Nisan).

Counting the Omer (barley harvest*) is for counting on day(s) toward Shavuot (wheat harvest).

*in Israel, the harvesters use sickle tool (scythe tool) below photos:

Happy Feast of Pentecost!

We Catholic Christians joyfully celebrate Paschal (Easter) for a total of 50 days – all the way until Pentecost is on May 19, 2024.

I understood Catholic Sacred Scriptures parallels of Old Covenant to Jesus Christ is New Covenant Messianic Fulfillment:

Easter (Paschal, Pesach, Passover) is on 14th of Nisan. March-April. Barley Harvest. 👈

Feast of Unleavened (Chag haMatzah) is on 15th of Nisan, always is on High Holy Day aka High Shabbat.

Feast of First Fruits (Yom haBikkurium) always is on 16th of Nisan same time Counting of the Omer (Sefirat haOmer). In Ancient Israel, the harvesters began using sickle tool harvesting on barley harvest. 👈

We all learn basic words:
Pentecost was originally the Jewish Festival of Shavout, the biblical “Feast of Weeks.” Shavuot literally means “weeks” (שָׁבוּעוֹת). Shavua is singular, means week. In the Septuagint, the Greek translators used the word Πεντηκοστή (Pentēkostē) to refer to the festival. The word Pentecost means “fiftieth” (50th) refers to Shavout always occurs on the fiftieth day (50th).

Shavuot marked the wheat harvest in the Land of Israel. Shavuot is on May-June aka wheat harvest. 👈

On Shavuot we all read Old Covenant “first five books”: Exodus 19 “God spoke thunderous to Moses and people “Giving of the Torah (Law) on the Mount Sinai”. Shavuot is completely seven weeks after the exodus delivered from “430 years bondage (Exodus 12:40) of Egypt” on Exodus 12-15.

That’s why Jewish people read the Book of Ruth always is on Shavuot according Ruth 2:23 is the anointing message on Shavuot is that her story takes place at wheat harvest time from the “leftovers” barley harvest time (Second Passover on Firstfruits), and Shavuot also occurs at the time of the spring harvest. Read this:

Ruth 2:23 ²³So she (Ruth) stayed close to the young women of Boaz, gleaning until the end of the barley and wheat harvests; and she lived with her mother-in-law (Noami).

Ruth 2:23 USCCB So she (Ruth) stayed gleaning with Boaz’s young women until the end of the barley and wheat harvests. 🤟 ❤️🙏🔥🕊️📿🙏

Please click and read on Ruth 1:16-17
16^* But Ruth said, “Do not press me to go back and abandon you!

Wherever you go I will go,

wherever you lodge I will lodge.

Your people shall be my people

and your God, my God.

17Where you die I will die,

and there be buried.

May the LORD do thus to me, and more, if even death separates me from you!”

Footnote on verse 16:

[1:16–17] Ruth’s adherence to her mother-in-law in 1:14 is now expressed in a profound oath of loyalty, culminating in a formulary found frequently in Samuel and Kings; cf. especially 1 Sm 20:13. Even death: burial in Naomi’s family tomb means that not even death will separate them.

This memorial is celebrated every year on the Monday after Pentecost.

Please click on ETWN:

The memorial of Mary, Mother of the Church, is celebrated the Monday after Pentecost. On Pentecost Sunday, we celebrate the birthday of the Church, and on the memorial of Mary, Mother of the Church, Catholics celebrate the fact that Mary, as the mother of Our Lord, is intrinsically linked to the Church as her mother.

What does Mater Ecclesiae mean?

Mater Ecclesiae is Latin for “Mother of the Church.”

The New Divine Ascension of Jesus Christ!

Pope Francis:

The #AscensionOfTheLord tells us that Jesus is alive among us in a new way. He is now present in every place and time, and is close to each of us. We are never alone: we have an Advocate who guides us, waits for us, and defends us. 🙏

I read on Luke 24:50-53 NABRE 🤟❤️🙏🔥🕊️📿

The Ascension.^[m] ⁵⁰Then he [Jesus] led them [out] as far as Bethany, raised his hands, and blessed them. ⁵¹As he blessed them he parted from them and was taken up to heaven. ⁵²They did him homage and then returned to Jerusalem with great joy, ⁵³and they were continually in the temple praising God.^[n]

Footnotes:

[m] 24:50–53 Luke brings his story about the time of Jesus to a close with the report of the ascension. He will also begin the story of the time of the church with a recounting of the ascension. In the gospel, Luke recounts the ascension of Jesus on Easter Sunday night, thereby closely associating it with the resurrection. In Acts 1:3, 9–11; 13:31 he historicizes the ascension by speaking of a forty-day period between the resurrection and the ascension. The Western text omits some phrases in Lk 24:51, 52perhaps to avoid any chronological conflict with Acts 1 about the time of the ascension.
[n] 24:53 The Gospel of Luke ends as it began (Lk 1:9), in the Jerusalem temple.

*664 Being seated at the Father’s right hand signifies the inauguration of the Messiah’s kingdom, the fulfillment of the prophet Daniel’s vision concerning the Son of man: “To him was given dominion and glory and kingdom, that all peoples, nations, and languages should serve him; his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom one that shall not be destroyed.”⁵⁴⁷ After this event the apostles became witnesses of the “kingdom [that] will have no end”.⁵⁴⁸

547 Dan 7:14. 🙏❤️🕊️🔥📿
548 Nicene Creed.🙏❤️🕊️🔥📿

*Ascension Press elaborates: Luke 24:44-53, Acts 1:6-11 Jesus’ Ascension marks his definitive enthronement at the right hand of the Father, fulfilling the vision of Daniel, in which the Son of Man ascends to the “Ancient of Days” and receives everlasting dominion (see Dan 7:13-14; CCC 664). Christ’s kingdom began with his coming, is now present in the Church, and will reach its fulfillment when he returns in glory.

665 Christ’s Ascension marks the definitive entrance of Jesus’ humanity into God’s heavenly domain, whence he will come again (cf. Acts 1:11); this humanity in the meantime hides him from the eyes of men (cf. Col 3:3).

Ten more days to go on Sunday, May 19, 2024 Pentecost aka occurs on 50th Day (Jewish Feast Shavuot means “Feast of Weeks”) I personally believe Jesus (Yeshua in Aramaic) is New Messianic Fulfillment according Old Covenant parallel New (Renewed) Covenant. Please read ETWN: Pentecost on May 19, 2024. Will update soon. May God bless you. 🤟❤️🙏🕊️🔥📿🙏
