Dear OLP Family,

Pentecost literally means 50th. It is a feast celebrated on the 50th day after the Passover feast by the Jews, who originally had it as a post-harvest thanksgiving feast. Later, the Jews included in it, the remembrance of God’s Covenants with Noah (after the Deluge) and with Moses (at Mt. Sinai). The Christians celebrated it as a feast on the 50th day after the feast of the Resurrection of Jesus.
