Waving The Leavened Bread
What is Pentecost?
Most churches in America and across the world celebrate Pentecost to some degree. These churches have different traditions for celebrating Pentecost but it is observed in some shape, form or fashion in almost every type of church. Yet the average church goer knows very little about Pentecost. In fact, many are unaware of even when Pentecost occurs until the religious professionals announce that they will be observing Pentecost the week before Pentecost.
What is Pentecost?
Ask two religious professionals this question and you are likely to get three different answers. Some will say it is when the Spirit of Truth (Ruach HaQodesh aka The Holy Spirit aka The Holy Ghost) was first given. Some will say it is when the church was born. Some will say that it commemorates the Apostles being baptized with the Spirit of Truth. Some will tell you that it is the holiday after Easter on the calendar that the Apostles established for the church. Other religious professionals will give still yet some other answers to this question.
What is Pentecost?
The best way to answer this question is look in the Book of Truth (The Bible) to see what it says about Pentecost.
What is Pentecost?
Pentecost is not some religious holiday like Christmas that never appears in the Book of Truth. Pentecost is the name of a holiday found in the Renewed Covenant (B'rit Chadashah aka The New Testament) that Paul the Jew (Shaul aka Saul) and other believers celebrated (Acts 20:16). Pentecost is an Anglicization of the Greek word "Pentekoste" which literally means "fiftieth". It is a shortened form of "Pentekoste Emera" which means "Fiftieth Day".
Why is this holiday called "fiftieth"?
This is a Feast of the Father of Truth that occurs after the seventh weekly Sabbath (Saturday) after the Feast of First Fruits (Reishit Katzir) (Leviticus 23:15). This Feast of the Father of Truth occurs on the fiftieth day when you count from the Feast of the First Fruits as day one and continues until you reach day fifty - which is the day (Sunday) after the Seventh Sabbath (Leviticus 23:15-16). So it is called the Fiftieth Day by the Greeks and is known as Pentecost in the Renewed Covenant.
What is Pentecost called in the Original Covenant (Tanakh aka The Old Testament)?
However in the Law of Truth (Torah aka The Law) it is called the Feast of Weeks (Shavuot) because it occurs after seven full weeks after the Feast of First Fruits (Deuteronomy 16:9-10). So the Pentecost of the Renewed Covenant is another name for the Feast of Weeks (Shavuot) in the Original Covenant.
Pentecost was when the first fruits of the wheat harvest was brought to the Father of Truth (YHVH aka God aka The LORD) just like the first fruits of the barley harvest had been brought at First Fruits (Reishit Katzir) so it is also called First Fruits because it is the second first fruits offering of the year (Exodus 34:22). This is explained more completely in the Raising of the First Fruits.
How was Pentecost supposed to be observed?
Every adult (twenty years and older) male among the Children of Truth that lived in the Land of Israel was to appear before the Father of Truth at the Temple for Pentecost and He would protect the land while they did so (Exodus 34:22-24). On this second First Fruits additional sacrifices were made besides the normal daily sacrifices (Numbers 28:26-31). Besides these additional meat offerings the priest was to bring in two loaves of leavened bread and wave them with the offerings (Leviticus 23:17-20). Pentecost was also like First Fruits in that it was to be treated like a Sabbath when no one could work and everyone had to congregate together even though it always fell on the day (Sunday) after the regular Sabbath (Saturday) (Leviticus 23:21). Pentecost was to be a great time of rejoicing before the Father of Truth in the Temple because of His deliverance from slavery in Egypt (Deuteronomy 16:10-12). No adult man on was allowed to miss this party and no one could show up empty handed (Deuteronomy 16:16-17).
What is Pentecost about?
What is unique about Pentecost is the waving the leavened bread in the Temple. Normally, leaven was not seen in the Temple for no leaven could be burned with the sacrifices (Exodus 34:25). Leaven was not allowed to be part of any offering that was to be made for the first fruits on the altar (Leviticus 2:10-12). The only other time that leavened bread was present in the Temple was when it was lifted up as a voluntary thanksgiving offering that was being made to the Father of Truth (Leviticus 7:12-14).
Some have suggested that the show bread (literally "the bread of the faces") was also leavened but it could not have been. The show bread was to be continually in the Temple as an offering made by fire and replaced every Sabbath (Leviticus 24:5-8). Besides the fact that no leaven was to be offered by fire, there also could be no leaven in any house, including the Temple, during the Feast of Unleavened Bread (Deuteronomy 16:4). This is explained more completely in Removing The Leaven.
So what is the significance of the two loaves of leavened bread at Pentecost? What is so important about waving the leavened bread?
When something is waved it brings attention to it. For example, people wave flags to show patriotism and people will wave their arms to get attention when they are in distress. So waving the leavened bread in the Temple showed that there was something significant about these two loaves being in the presence of the Father of Truth.
So what was so important that was signified by these two loaves?
The best way to answer that question is to look at the two important events that occurred on Pentecost in the Book of Truth. These two events are tied together in a fashion similar to the way that the first first fruits, called First Fruits, is tied to the second first fruits, called Pentecost, by being on opposite ends of the counting to fifty. These two events are tied together in the same way that barely and wheat are tied together by these two feasts where each harvest is began by bringing the first fruits of its grain to the Temple. These two loaves represent two different types of harvest that both began on the same day of the week (Sunday).
Some people have said that the church was born on Pentecost but they are only partly correct if they are referring to the event in Jerusalem where the Children of Truth (those who obey the Father of Truth because they love Him) were first baptized in the Spirit of Truth. Pentecost, which always occurs in the third month of the Biblical Calendar, is also the day that the Law of Truth was first given to the Children of Truth at Mount Sinai (Exodus 19:1-6). This is when the church, the congregation of the Children of Truth, was born for the first time (Acts 7:37-38). This is the first Pentecost.
About 1800 years later in Jerusalem, the Children of Truth were first baptized in the Spirit of Truth and began to speak with other tongues for the first time (Acts 2:1-4). This is when the church, the congregation of the Children of Truth, was born for the second time. This is the second Pentecost.
The events of the first Pentecost lead to 3,000 men being killed because they rebelled (Exodus 32:25-28). The events of the second Pentecost lead to 3,000 men being saved because they repented (Acts 2:38-41). The Law of Truth without the Spirit of Truth could only bring death (2 Corinthians 3:5-6).
This is because the Law of Truth given at the first Pentecost was never complete until the Spirit of Truth was given at the second Pentecost. The second Pentecost was promised to come in the Original Covenant because the Spirit of Truth had to be given so people could keep the Law of Truth (Ezekiel 36:26-28). The Law of Truth is spiritual so it requires the Spirit of Truth to keep it (Romans 7:12-14). No one can keep the Law of Truth without help from the Spirit of Truth (Romans 8:2-4). It is the Spirit of Truth who gives people the ability to keep the Law of Truth (1 John 3:23-24). This is explained more fully in Written On My Heart.
For this reason the second Pentecost was much better than the first Pentecost (2 Corinthians 3:7-8)! The first Pentecost is completely overshadowed by the second Pentecost (2 Corinthians 3:9-11)!
During the entire time of the ministry of the Man of Truth (Yeshua HaMashiach aka Jesus Christ) only Jews living in the land of Israel were brought into the House of Truth (Matthew 15:24). It was only after his resurrection that the Children of Truth were told to go into all the world and preach while operating in the power of the Spirit of Truth (Mark 16:15-18). The Children of Truth had to wait for the Spirit of Truth before they could bring the Good News of the Man of Truth to those outside of Israel (Luke 24:45-49). When the Spirit of Truth was given at the second Pentecost then Jews from all over the world were brought into the House of Truth (Acts 2:5-11).
So at this second Pentecost Peter the Jew (Cephas aka Simon aka Simeon) recognized that the Father of Truth had began to fulfill His promise to reach people beyond the borders of Israel (Acts 2:36-39). Yet he did not understand the reason for two loaves being used in the waving of the leavened bread in the Temple at Pentecost.
Leaven was not normally in the Temple because it represented sin. Every sacrifice in the Temple was a picture of the sacrifice that the Man of Truth would make to save the human race. There could be no leaven used in the sacrifices because there was no sin in the Man of Truth (Hebrews 9:28).
The loaves of leavened bread represented the human race because all people have sinned (Romans 3:23). There was this ritual of waving the leavened bread to bring attention to the fact that the human race, which had sinned, could come into the presence of His Father because of his sacrifice (Hebrews 4:14-16).
Yet there remained a veil over the eyes of the Jewish Children of Truth that were at the second Pentecost. They could not see that the Father of Truth would also save the Gentiles without requiring them to first become Jews until the Gentiles were also baptized in the Spirit of Truth with the evidence of speaking in tongues (Acts 10:44-46). It was the Gentiles receiving the same gift that the Jews had received at the second Pentecost which finally removed the veil from their eyes so they could understand the purpose of waving the leavened bread (Acts 11:16-18). They could finally understand that two loaves were used to bring attention to the plan of the Father of Truth to bring both Jews and Gentiles into His presence through the work of the Spirit of Truth (1 Corinthians 12:13).
Was this inclusion of the Gentiles in the House of Truth a change in the plan of the Father of Truth?
The Father of Truth had revealed in His Covenant with Abraham (Abram) that He intended to save the Gentiles through the nation of Israel before it ever existed (Genesis 12:1-3). When the Law of Truth was given at the first Pentecost He had already said that it was not not just for the nation of Israel that was present at Mount Sinai but also for other people that were not there (Deuteronomy 29:13-15). The Father of Truth said that the Gentiles would rejoice with the nation of Israel when He took revenge on those that do evil and showed mercy to His people (Deuteronomy 32:43). He said that He had always planned to save whoever would humble themselves whether they were near to Jerusalem or far off from Jerusalem (Isaiah 57:15-19). He would cause the Gentiles, who had not been called His people, to be called His people and they would return to Him to call Him their God (Hosea 2:23).
It was always His plan for the Gentiles would seek the Man of Truth (Isaiah 11:10). The Man of Truth was always meant to be a light to Gentiles as well as the Jews (Isaiah 42:5-7). The small percentage of Jews that would accept him as king was too small of a payment for his sacrifice on the cross (Isaiah 49:5-7). It was always His plan to use the Man of Truth to make His name great among the Gentiles (Malachi 1:11).
The Father of Truth had always planned to make a new people to bring jealousy to the nation of Israel and to create from those people of a new nation that was ignorant of the Law of Truth to provoke the nation of Israel when it abandoned Him and the Law of Truth (Deuteronomy 32:21). He planned to have this new nation speak to the nation of Israel in an unknown tongue so He could bring them into the rest He had promised (Isaiah 28:10-12). He said that He would reveal Himself to this new nation that had not previously called upon His name because the nation of Israel had refused to seek after Him (Isaiah 65:1-2).
He had planned on Gentiles being called by His name when most of Israel refused (Amos 9:10-12). It was His plan to cause the Gentiles to repent and be called His Children so that the nation of Israel would repent and do likewise (Hosea 1:9-10). This plan is further explained in The Secret Plan.
The Man of Truth understood that the Gentiles who would repent were also to be brought into the same fold as the lost sheep of the house of Israel that would repent (John 10:15-17). This is why he knew that his time to be gloried was at hand when the Gentiles began seeking him (John 12:20-24). He understood the significance of the two loaves used for waving the leaven bread at Pentecost in the Temple. He understood that Pentecost was about including the Gentiles in salvation as the four act of the play made up by the Feasts of His Father. This is explained further in The Greatest Play Ever.
So the inclusion of the Gentiles signified by two loaves being used for waving the leaven bread was always in the Original Covenant but it could not be seen because there was a veil over the eyes of the Jewish Children of Truth. This veil is still there among all Jews who have not came into the House of Truth.
It is knowing the Man of Truth that takes away this veil which prevents people from seeing the plan of the Father of Truth when the Original Covenant is read (2 Corinthians 3:12-14). It is the Spirit of Truth, who was given at the second Pentecost, which takes away the veil when the Law of Truth, which was given at the first Pentecost, is read (2 Corinthians 3:15-18). This mystery was hid in plain sight in the Original Covenant until the Spirit of Truth made it known after the second Pentecost (Colossians 1:25-27).
When the Gentiles were baptized in the Spirit of Truth, just like the Jews who had been at the second Pentecost, then the veil was lifted from the eyes of the Jewish Children of Truth so that they could see what always been written in the Original Covenant (Acts 15:13-15).
Now they understood it had always been the plan of the Father of Truth for the Gentiles who repented to be called by His name (Acts 15:16-18). Now that the Gentiles had came into the House of Truth a new people and a new nation composed of believing Jews and Gentiles called "Christians" came into existence (Acts 11:26). Now the congregation of Jewish and Gentile Children of Truth were a new people and a new nation that was completely different from both the unbelieving Jews and the unbelieving Gentiles (1 Corinthians 10:32).
This was the people who Hosea had spoken about being called the Children of Truth (Romans 9:24-26). This was the nation who Moses had spoken about being used to provoke the nation of Israel (Romans 10:19). This was the people who Isaiah had spoken about being sought out by the Father of Truth when the nation of Israel rejected Him (Romans 10:20-21). This was the people who Isaiah had spoken about speaking to the nation of Israel in an unknown tongue as a sign (1 Corinthians 14:21-22). This was the people who Hosea had spoken about coming into existence as the people of the Father of Truth (1 Peter 2:10).
It is important to remember that two loaves were used for waving the leavened bread. The right hand loaf was of equal importance to the left hand loaf. The inclusion of the Gentiles signified by the left hand loaf did not mean that there was some sort of exclusion of the Jews signified by the right hand loaf.
The inclusion of the Gentiles meant that they were coming into the House of Truth which had once been exclusively Jewish (Romans 11:16-18). The Jews who were excluded for rebelling against the Father of Truth would be once again included in the House of Truth if they also repented because that was the purpose of including the Gentiles in the first place (Romans 11:23-24). The Gentiles were now included in the commonwealth of Israel that lives in the House of Truth by the blood of the Man of Truth (Ephesians 2:11-13). He brought an end to all no ill feelings between Jews and Gentiles because both have been included in the House of Truth (Ephesians 2:14-16). It was giving of the Spirit of Truth that has made it possible for both Jews who were near when the Law of Truth was given and Gentiles who were far off when the Law of Truth was given to be included together in the House of Truth (Ephesians 2:17-19).
This new nation who lives in the House of Truth is what the Father of Truth has always wanted for Israel (Galatians 6:15-16). This new people who live in the House of Truth were the holy nation that the Father of Truth had said He would bring into being (1 Peter 2:8-10).
You can be part of this holy nation that lives in the House of Truth whether you are a Jew or a Gentile. Both Jews who were given the Law of Truth and Gentiles who were far away when the Law of Truth was given have broken the Law of Truth (Romans 2:11-12). Therefore the Father of Truth has called both Jews and Gentiles to come into the House of Truth as signified by the two loaves that were used for waving the leavened bread at Pentecost in the Temple (Romans 9:22-24). Anyone that will surrender control of their life to the Man of Truth because they believe that His Father raised him from the dead will come into the House of Truth (Romans 10:8-10). Everyone that that calls upon the Man of Truth in total surrender will come into the House of Truth and be saved (Romans 10:11-13)!
Come into the House of Truth.

Pentecost is not some religious holiday like Christmas that never appears in the Book of Truth.

This was the people who Isaiah had spoken about being sought out by the Father of Truth when the nation of Israel rejected Him (Romans 10:20-21). This was the people who Isaiah had spoken about speaking to the nation of Israel in an unknown tongue as a sign (1 Corinthians 14:21-22). This was the people who Hosea had spoken about coming into existence as the people of the Father of Truth (1 Peter 2:10).
It is important to remember that two loaves were used for waving the leavened bread. The right hand loaf was of equal importance to the left hand loaf. The inclusion of the Gentiles signified by the left hand loaf did not mean that there was some sort of exclusion of the Jews signified by the right hand loaf.
The inclusion of the Gentiles meant that they were coming into the House of Truth which had once been exclusively Jewish (Romans 11:16-18). The Jews who were excluded for rebelling against the Father of Truth would be once again included in the House of Truth if they also repented because that was the purpose of including the Gentiles in the first place (Romans 11:23-24). The Gentiles were now included in the commonwealth of Israel that lives in the House of Truth by the blood of the Man of Truth (Ephesians 2:11-13). He brought an end to all no ill feelings between Jews and Gentiles because both have been included in the House of Truth (Ephesians 2:14-16). It was giving of the Spirit of Truth that has made it possible for both Jews who were near when the Law of Truth was given and Gentiles who were far off when the Law of Truth was given to be included together in the House of Truth (Ephesians 2:17-19).
This new nation who lives in the House of Truth is what the Father of Truth has always wanted for Israel (Galatians 6:15-16). This new people who live in the House of Truth were the holy nation that the Father of Truth had said He would bring into being (1 Peter 2:8-10).
You can be part of this holy nation that lives in the House of Truth whether you are a Jew or a Gentile. Both Jews who were given the Law of Truth and Gentiles who were far away when the Law of Truth was given have broken the Law of Truth (Romans 2:11-12). Therefore the Father of Truth has called both Jews and Gentiles to come into the House of Truth as signified by the two loaves that were used for waving the leavened bread at Pentecost in the Temple (Romans 9:22-24). Anyone that will surrender control of their life to the Man of Truth because they believe that His Father raised him from the dead will come into the House of Truth (Romans 10:8-10). Everyone that that calls upon the Man of Truth in total surrender will come into the House of Truth and be saved (Romans 10:11-13)!
Come into the House of Truth.
