This feast is the second of the three harvest feasts. It occurs exactly seven weeks after the Feasts of First Fruits, so it's also called Pentecost, which means "50days." God's plan to save souls included more than the Jews. Through Jesus, this plan was revealed. In Matthew 9:37, Jesus tells His disciples that "the harvest is great, but the workers are few." Then he put the plan into place: In Acts 1:4 He tells them to wait in Jerusalem for the Holy Spirit.

That arrival was the day the Church was born- Pentecost - and the harvest began with 3000 souls. The message spread to both Jews and Gentiles( the two leavened loaves of bread), extending the harvest to us.
