What is pentecost ?
The word "Pentecost" is from the New Testament and comes from
the greek pentekoste (hemera). The word means the fiftieth - the
fiftieth day after easter. You will find the word only 3 times in the
New Testament.
The background of pentecost comes from the old Testament where the event
has different names as: weekly celebration (hag
sabu'ot), Exodus. 34,22, (hag haqqasir), 23,16, og the day of the
first fruit (yom habbikkurim), 4.
