My dear parishioners, This Sunday the Church celebrates the Solemnity of Pente-cost. The Greek word Pentecost means “fiftieth.” Originally a Jewish feast, Pentecost refers to the fiftieth day after the feast of Passover. On that day, after having celebrated the Passo-ver and the Israelites’ liberation from slavery in Egypt, Mo-ses received the Law from God on Mt. Sinai where he had remained for forty days and forty nights. This reception of the Law (the Ten Commandments) completed the birth of the People of Israel which had begun with the Passover. In Hebrew, this feast of Pentecost is called Shavuot which means “weeks,” referring to the seven weeks which sepa-rate the Passover and Moses’ reception of the Law on Mt. Sinai. God commanded the Israelites to celebrate each year this feast of Pentecost or Weeks for two reasons: (1) to com-memorate and give thanks to God for his gift of the Law to Moses on Mt. Sinai and (2) to give thanks to God for the grain harvest by offering to him their first fruits. All of this was to foreshadow the great feast which we celebrate today: the Christian feast of Pentecost, the birthday of the Church. Jesus Christ is both the true Passover Lamb and the New Moses who gives us the New Law of grace. As the true Lamb of God, his blood takes away the sins of the world. As the New Moses, he liberates us from the slavery of sin and death by his passion, death, resurrection, and ascension. Like Moses who remained forty days on Mt. Sinai, Christ, the New Moses, remained forty days on earth after his res-urrection. And as Moses ascended Mt. Sinai to deliver the Law fifty days after the Passover, Christ, the New Moses, ascended into Heaven itself to deliver the New Law of grace by sending down the Holy Spirit. Seven weeks after Christ’s Resurrection, the Holy Spirit descended upon the Apostles in the form of tongues of fire, filling them with his seven gifts. This outpouring of the Holy Spirit’s grace and gifts allowed them to fulfill the Law with divine love and gave them an active power to proclaim and defend the faith fear-lessly. So full of divine power were the Apostles, that on the day of Pentecost, the Apostle Peter converted 3,000 people through his preaching of the Gospel and through Baptism! The offering of the first fruits of the grain harvest was only a shadow of the offering to God of these first fruits of the Apostles’ preaching. Today, let us give thanks to the Holy Spirit for his grace and his gifts received at our Baptism and increased at our Confirmation. Fr. Draper
