Dr. Wallis says, 1Pentecost was the first day of the week, and proves it from Levit. 23. 15. The morrow after the Sabbath the Priest was to wave the Sheaf-Offering. And then he proceeds, ver. 15, 16. To the Feast of Pentecost or Feast of Weeks, ye shall count unto you from the morrow of the Sabbath from the day you brought the Sheaf of the Wave-offering; seven Sabbaths shall be complete, even unto the morrow after the seventh Sabbath shall ye number fifty days▪ inclusively taken, as the manner of the Scripture reckoning is, and must needs be so here. It was called the Feast of Pentecost, or the Feast of Weeks, as Deut. 16. 9, 10. which Feast was the morrow after the Sabbath, i. e. on the first day of the week.
