The Holiday of Shavuot (May 21th-28th)

The Torah Reading cycle is suspended for the holiday of Shavuot aka Harvest aka Pentecost.

Technically, according to the Hebrew Torah, the "Saturday" - the Sabbath day, May 20th (at sundown) marks the end of the 49 days of counting the Omer, and therefore the following day (1st Day called "Sunday") is the "Jubilee" of Shavuot (i.e., "Weeks" or "Pentecost"). Recall that the Torah instructed (Lev. 23:15-16) that we count from the day following Passover (i.e., Nisan 16) for exactly seven weeks, until Sivan 5 (i.e., from April 9th until May 28h this year). On the 50th day (i.e., Sivan 6), a special celebration was to be observed. This annual "countdown period" recalls both the time from the Passover until the revelation at Sinai, and the advent of the Holy Spirit (רוח הקודש) among Rabboni (Our Master) Yeshua's disciples in Jerusalem (Acts 2:1-4). Note: The 49-day plus one Omer (Sheaf of Wheat) Count traditionally is said by some other Jews to begin on the day after the Passover (i.e., Nisan 16). This is incorrect. It begins according to Torah on the "morrow after the (Weekly) Sabbath" (Lev. 23:11), which is the "first day of the week" or Sunday.

NOTE: The Gregorian year 2023 is actually 2015 E.C. Ethiopian/Early Church Calendar. Therefore, this year's ትንሣኤ Tinsa'ei/Firstfruits aka First Day 1st Resurrection (according to the Western Roman Church and her Protestant Daughters) is April 9th 2023 AD date! (Note - ዳግም ትንሣኤ Dagim Tinsa'Ey AKA The 2nd Resurrection Sunday this year is April 9, 2023 according to Ethiopia Kingdom of God EKOG)
