John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Leviticus 23:12

And ye shall offer that day, when ye wave the sheaf ,.... Besides the daily sacrifice of the morning and evening, and the additional offerings made on everyone of the seven days of the feast of unleavened bread: an he lamb without blemish of the first year, for a burnt offering unto the Lord ; typical of the perfect and immaculate Lamb of God, whose sufferings are fitly signified by a burnt offering; and which were endured at the time he became the firstfruits of his people, and... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Leviticus 23:13

And the meat offering thereof shall be two tenth deals of fine flour mingled with oil ,.... The usual measure of flour to a meat offering was one tenth deal, Exodus 29:40 ; but here it is doubled: some Jewish writers say F16 Chaskuni. one tenth was on account of the lamb that was offered at this time, and the other as was suitable for a meat offering; but the true reason seems to be, because it was on account of the fruits of the earth and the plenty thereof; and therefore a double... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Leviticus 23:14

And ye shall eat neither bread, nor parched corn, nor green ears ,.... That is, they were not allowed to make bread of the new corn, as Aben Ezra and Gersom explain it; for they were obliged to eat unleavened bread at this time: but it might not be made of the new corn, until the above offering was made; nay, they were not allowed to parch any of the grains of corn, and eat them; yea, even they might not pluck and eat the green ears, though of ever so small a quantity. The Jews say F17 ... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Leviticus 23:15

And ye shall count unto you from the morrow after the sabbath ,.... Not the seventh day sabbath in the passover week, nor the whole feast of unleavened bread, but the first day of it, which was an holy convocation, a sabbath in which no servile work was to be done, Leviticus 23:7 ; and it was from the day after this, even the sixteenth of Nisan, that the following count was to be made; so the Targum of Jonathan, after the first feast day of the passover: and Josephus F19 Antiqu. l. 3.... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Leviticus 23:16

Even unto the morrow after the seventh sabbath ,.... Or weeks, forty nine days being counted, the following was the fiftieth day, or Pentecost: shall ye number fifty days ; from whence this feast had the name of Pentecost, Acts 2:1 ; all in Israel were obliged to number those days, except women and servants F20 Maimon. Hilchot Tamidin Umusaphim, c. 7. sect. 24. : the manner of doing it was this F21 Schulchan Aruch, par. 1. c. 489. sect. 1. & Lebush, ut supra, (c. 489.)... read more

He shalt wave the sheaf - He shall move it to and fro before the people, and thereby call their attention to the work of Divine Providence, and excite their gratitude to God for preserving to them the kindly fruits of the earth. See Clarke's note on Exodus 29:27 , and Exodus 7 at end. read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Leviticus 23:14

Ye shall eat neither bread, nor parched corn, nor green ears - It is right that God, the dispenser of every blessing, should be acknowledged as such, and the first-fruits of the field, etc., dedicated to him. Concerning the dedication of the first-fruits, see the note on Exodus 22:29 . Parched ears of corn and green ears, fried, still constitute a part, and not a disagreeable one, of the food of the Arabs now resident in the Holy Land. See Hasselquist. read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Leviticus 23:15

Ye shall count unto you - seven Sabbaths - That is, from the sixteenth of the first month to the sixth of the third month. These seven weeks, called here Sabbaths, were to be complete, i. e., the forty-nine days must be finished, and the next day, the fiftieth, is what, from the Septuagint, we call pentecost. See the note on Luke 6:1 . read more

John Calvin

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Leviticus 23:4

Verse 4 4.These are the feasts of the Lord. The other festivals which Moses here enumerates have an affinity to the Sabbath. In the first place the Passover is put, the mystery of which I have annexed, not without reason, to the First Commandment, for its institution was there explained, inasmuch as it acted as a restraint on the people from falling away to strange gods. In that rite they were initiated to the service of God, that they might abandon all the superstitions of the Gentiles, and... read more
