What do Shvauot and Pentecost have in common? What does the ‘fire of God’ mean to Jews and Christians? Dr. Buehler looks through the biblical history of the festivals which enlighten our present-day understandings of the connection between Jews and Christians.
As Israelis continue to endure the tensions of war and the shocking waves of antisemitism, they are counting the days for another reason, one that honours the Biblical calendar God gave them.
At Shavuot, Israel are reminded of the theological, historical & biblical significance of God’s provision to them through the humble barley grain.
On the very first Passover, God’s people were set free from bondage. Shavuot was the time of the first fruits harvest, another cause for celebration, and it was then that Pentecost happened where God poured out His Spirit on the followers of the risen Jesus.
The Biblical Feast of Shavuot, The Feast of Weeks, or Pentecost, is one of the three times in the year when the people of Israel were required by God to come up to Jerusalem for a holy assembly.
