Pentecost was one of the three great Jewish pilgrim feasts. All able-bodied men were expected to come to Jerusalem, from wherever they lived, for the festival. The word 'Pentecost' is of Greek and Latin origin – and still used by the church as it was the fiftieth day after Easter Sunday (1 Corinthians 16:8). But the Jewish celebration was 'Shavuot' the feast of Weeks (being seven full weeks from Passover) or the Harvest of First Fruits.
