in the day of the firstfruits
on Numbers 28:26-31
This feast carries no date in any month. It is placed by counting, after your weeks be out, which Leviticus 23:15-16 measures as fifty days from the sheaf of the wave offering, and it is the one appointment in the chapter fixed by a tally rather than by a day of the month. Acts 2:1 has the disciples together when that counted day was fully come. The chapter closes here, and the offerings of the seventh month, the trumpets, the day of atonement and the booths, are held over to chapter 29.

4 The one lamb shalt thou offer in the morning, and the other lamb shalt thou offer at even; 5 And a tenth part of an ephah of flour for a meat offering, mingled with the fourth part of an hin of beaten oil. 6 It is a continual burnt offering, which was ordained in mount Sinai for a sweet savour, a sacrifice made by fire unto the L ORD .
