The Jewish Feast of Shavuot

 



The Jewish Feast of Shavuot

Sid Roth


The Jewish Feast of Shavuot, or Pentecost, begins on Sunday, May 16.

Shavuot is called the Feast of Harvest in Exodus 23:16 (MEV): "You shall observe the FEAST OF HARVEST, the first fruits of your labors, which you have sown in the field."


The first Pentecost for the early church was accompanied by supernatural signs that led to a great harvest of souls—THREE THOUSAND JEWISH PEOPLE prayed to receive Jesus as Messiah and Lord!


How did this happen? 


It says in Acts 2:1-3 (NIV): "When the day of Pentecost came, they were

all together in one place. Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting. 

They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them. The disciples all saw, heard and felt the GLORY (manifest goodness and Presence of God)."
