and wish to point it out I will appreciate it and will take no offence to you doing so. Any help I receive is
appreciated and helps me continue to learn. Also, if there are things that I have overlooked that will strengthen theviewpoint of this work I would appreciate your input on that too, or if it turns out that you are critical of this work
then constructive criticism is encouraged. I am not of the opinion that there is nothing that I have overlooked or
misunderstood, or that I cannot be wrong.
Furthermore, although it has been stated that I over explain some things, I believe an under-explanation is
incomplete. (2Tim. 4:5)
All Scriptural quotes come from the AUTHORIZED KING JAMES VERSION except when noted.
Jehovahis an improper transliteration of our heavenly fathers name, Yahweh. Therefore, Yahweh is used through
out this write-up, and where Yahwehs name should appear in Scripture, the Scriptural quotes that are quoted in this
write-up where the improper name Jehovah has been used or where God and Lord have been rendered in place of his
name his proper name Yahweh has been restored in those quotes.
Jesus is an improper transliteration of our saviors name, Yahushua. Therefore, Yahushua is used through out this
write-up and where Yahushuas name should appear in Scripture, the Scriptural quotes that are quoted in this write -
up where his name should appear, his proper name Yahushua has been restored in those quotes.
God is a poor translation of the Hebrew word, Elohim. Therefore, Elohim has been used through out this write-up
and in the Scriptural quotes where the word God is not used for a substitution of our heavenly fa thers name for a
better rendition of the word. Elohim has a plural singular meaning rather than simply being singular, like the word
God is. Like the word family is one, but it is one as in a unit, the same is true of the word Elohim. However, the
word God does not carry across that same meaning and therefore is a poor translation of the word Elohim.
Calendar Illustrations: Most are set up with a simulated month of April of no given year with the purpose to
illustrate a seven-day period of time to represent the seven days of unleavened bread within a months span, and for
those seven days to begin on the first day of the week is important for the cause of this write up. Therefore, nocalendar year in particular is given, because by doing so not all will agree that those seven days are the seven days of
unleavened bread which will form other controversies not pertinent to this write up.

Purpose Of This Ar ticle
This study is not being presented to debate the controversy about if Leviticus 23:11 is referring to the morrow after
the weekly Sabbath or if it is referring to the morrow after the annual sabbath. This study is based upon the
knowledge that the count to the Feast of Weeks does not always have to begin with the day that follows the first day
of unleavened bread.
The only way that Leviticus 23:11 could be referring to the morrow after the first annual sabbath, rather than the
morrow after the weekly Sabbath, would be for the law of Yahweh to identify the first annual sabbath as being a
shabbath, Strongs #7676. However, such is not the case. Therefore, the day that Leviticus 23:11 is referring to,which is within the Feast of Unleavened Bread, is the morrow after the weekly Sabbath, Strongs #7676, shabbath;
intens. from 7673; intermission, i.e. (spec.) the Sabbath, not the morrow after the first annual sabbath of the Feast.
It is interesting to note that many pick and choose what the meaning of the word Sabbath is within the verses of
Leviticus 23:11-16 to fit what ever their theology is. In other words, some teach that the word Sabbath (Strongs
#7676) in verse 11 is referring to the morrow after the first annual sabbath of unleavened bread, while the word
Sabbaths (Strongs#7676) in verse 15 and the word Sabbath (Strongs #7676) in verse 16 is merely referring to
weeks. However, nowhere does Scripture identify Strongs #7676 as being a week. The words Sabbath/Sabbaths in
these verses of Scripture are all identified as being the same word, Strongs #7676. Thus, verse 11 is not referring toan annual Sabbath while verses 15 & 16 are referring to weeks. The only consistency is that because all of the
words Sabbath and Sabbaths are translated from the same word, Strongs #7676, all of the Sabbaths are the same.
Thus:
Either All of the Sabbaths are a reference to annual Sabbaths
Or All of the Sabbaths are a reference to weeks
Or All of the Sabbaths are a reference to weekly Sabbaths
Which one Scripturally, logically, and historically fits?
Only the reference to weekly Sabbaths Scripturally, logically, and historically fits.

THE DAY THATLEVITICUS 23:11IS REFERRING TO:
The Morrow Of or The Morrow After?Leviticus 23:11 is referring to a day that is within the Feast of Unleavened Bread, but when comparing different
translations of the Scriptures to each other it can be discovered that some of them read, on the morrow of the
Sabbath, while others read, on the morrow after the Sabbath. So, is this verse of Scripture referring to the
morrow of the Sabbath that is within the Feast of Unleavened Bread or is this verse of Scripture referring to the
morrow after the Sabbath that is within the Feast of Unleavened Bread?
Although there are many groups who teach that the sheaf of the wave offering is to be, on the morrow after the
Sabbath, many of those same groups teach that Leviticus 23:11 is referring to the Sabbath that is within the Feast
of Unleavened Bread, which is the same thing as saying, on the morrow of the Sabbath. I find this to be a
contradiction within their doctrines, which distorts the meaning of this verse of Scripture making it say two different
things.
Lets examine the Scriptures to see if we can find out what day truly is to be within the Feast of Unleavened Bread
according to what we read in Leviticus 23:11, because the missed interpretation of this verse will, at times, cause the
observance of the Feast of Weeks to be at the wrong time. Beware!Below is an illustration showing, the morrow of the
Sabbath and the morrow after the Sabbath within a
simulated month of April. Please note that there are 4
morrows of and 4 morrows after the Sabbath within thismonth. So which morrow is Leviticus 23:11 referring to?

The day when the priest shall wave the sheaf before Yahweh, to be accepted for you, as instructed in Leviticus
23:11, is to be offered during the seven days of unleavened bread. Although Leviticus 23:11 does not specificallysay that the day when the priest shall wave the sheaf before Yahweh, to be accepted for you, is to be offered
during the seven days of unleavened bread, evidence of this being so is revealed from all of the other instructions
listed in the 23rdchapter of Leviticus that those instructions are instructed for the time which is during Yahwehs
Festivals:
In Leviticus 23:16-21 are instructions to be carried out during Pentecost.
In Leviticus 23:24-25 are instructions to be carried out during Trumpets.
In Leviticus 23:27-32 are instructions to be carried out during the Day of Atonement.
In Leviticus 23:34-36,39-43 are instructions to be carried out during the Feast of Tabernacles and Last Great Day.
Therefore, to follow suit, the instructions given in Leviticus 23:11 are to be carried out during one of Yahwehs
festivals as well, but which one? The Feast of Unleavened Bread, of course. The wave sheaf cannot be offered
before or after the Feast, but must be offered during the seven days of unleavened bread, on the day of unleavened
bread that is on the morrow after the Sabbath (the first day of the week, Sunday).
Just as the instructions in Leviticus 23:16-21 are to be carried out during Pentecost, to be accepted, and just as the
instructions in Leviticus 23:24-25 are to be carried out during Trumpets, to be accepted, and just as the instructionsin Leviticus 23:27-32 are to be carried out during the Day of Atonement, to be accepted, and just as the instructions
in Leviticus 23:34-36, 39-43 are to be carried out during the Feast of Tabernacles and Last Great Day, to be
accepted, the instructions given in Leviticus 23:6-14 are to be carried out during the Feast of Unleavened Bread, to
be accepted, which includes the day when the priest shall wave the sheaf before Yahweh (Lev. 23:11).
Otherwise, the date for Pentecost will at times, or all of the time, turn out to be on the wrong date.
NONE of these instructions can be carried out before or after the festivals of Yahweh, to be accepted. Therefore,
the day when the priest shall wave the sheaf before Yahweh, to be accepted for you, must be during the festival
of unleavened bread, but not on just any day of unleavened bread, it must specifically be offered, on the morrowafter the Sabbath the priest shall wave it. The wave sheaf offering must be offered on the day of unleavened bread
that is on the first day of the week, which is the morrow after the Sabbath. In other words, the Sunday that is
within the seven days of unleavened bread is the day when the priest shall wave the sheaf before Yahweh, to be
accepted for you (Lev 23:11)

Therefore, every year when the seven days of unleavened bread comes around, in order to properly set the day when
the count of the Feast of Weeks is to begin, to be accepted for you, the day of unleavened bread that is on themorrow after the Sabbath, which is the first day of the week (Sunday) is the day of unleavened bread when the
priest shall wave the sheaf before Yahweh. And that is the day that begins the count of the Feast of Weeks. The
day when the priest shall wave the sheaf before Yahweh can be on any one of the seven days of unleavened bread
whenever that day of unleavened bread is on the first day of the week (Sunday).
Simply put, because the instructions in Leviticus 23:11 are instructions that are for the time during the Feast of
Unleavened Bread it is absurd to teach that Leviticus 23:11 is referring to the Sabbath that is within the Feast of
Unleavened Bread, because the Sabbath is the day prior to the day when the priest shall wave the sheaf before
Yahweh.
With such a teaching like that the day when the priest shall wave the sheaf before Yahweh will at times be after
the Feast of Unleavened Bread, but the instructions given in Leviticus 23:11 are pertaining to the time of the Feast
when the priest shall wave the sheaf. Therefore, it is faulty reasoning to teach that Leviticus 23:11 is referring to
the Sabbath that is within the Feast of Unleavened Bread, because the Sabbath is the day prior to the day when
the priest shall wave the sheaf before Yahweh, and there are three words missing from that thesis, on the
morrow.
Although there are some that teach Leviticus 23:11 is referring to the Sabbath that is within the Feast of
Unleavened Bread rather than the morrow after the Sabbath, their count to Pentecost will always be a week late inthe years when the last day of unleavened bread is on the Sabbath, because they dont begin their count until after
the Sabbath that is within the seven days of unleavened bread. Thus, from the deletion of Yahwehs words, on the
morrow, the day that they have set when the priest shall wave the sheaf before Yahweh will not be on the
morrow after the Sabbath that is within the Feast of Unleavened Bread as it should be, but rather the day that they
have set when the priest shall wave the sheaf before Yahweh will be on the morrow after the Sabbath that is
after the Sabbath that is within the Feast of Unleavened Bread.
Although they can rightly decipher that Sunday is the morrow after the Sabbath, when the priest shall wave [the
sheaf], and from that they proclaim that they are counting from the morrow after the Sabbath that is within theFeast of Unleavened Bread, however, they do not properly decipher that the morrow after the Sabbath is the
Sunday that is within the seven days of unleavened bread as well as the day when the priest shall wave [the sheaf].
Thus, although the day that they set to begin the count to Pentecost is on [ A] morrow after the Sabbath, that
morrow after the Sabbath is not THE morrow after the Sabbath that Leviticus 23:11 is referring to because it is

The example on the left is what is instructed in Leviticus 23:11, that the sheaf of the wave offering is to be on the
morrow after the Sabbath that is within the Feast of Unleavened Bread, while the example on the right reflects theview of those who erroneously teach that Leviticus 23:11 is referring to the Sabbath that is within the Feast of
Unleavened bread rather than the morrow after the Sabbath, which would put the day when the priest shall wave
[the sheaf] after the Feast of Unleavened Bread instead of being within the Feast of Unleavened Bread as
instructed.
Although they will argue that they do not leave out the words in Leviticus 23:11, on the morrow, they do when
they are referring to which day it is that is to be within the seven days of unleavened bread, because if the morrow
after the Sabbath means that it is Sunday when the priest shall wave [the sheaf], then the morrow after the
Sabbath means that it is Sunday that is to be within the Feast of Unleavened Bread. Simply put, the day beingspoken of is the Sunday that is within the Feast of Unleavened Bread. Therefore, when it comes to the day that
Leviticus 23:11 is speaking of which is to be within the seven days of unleavened bread the three words, on the
morrow is left out, because they say this verse of Scripture is referring to the Sabbath that is within the Feast of
Unleavened Bread, when, in fact, this verse of Scripture is in reference to the morrow after the Sabbath that is
within the Feast of Unleavened Bread.
It is on the morrow after the Sabbath, which is within the Feast of Unleavened Bread when the priest shall wave
[the sheaf], which begins the count of the Fe ast of Weeks. But those who say that Leviticus 23:11 is referring to
the Sabbath, that is within the Feast of Unleavened Bread clearly leave the three words out, on the morrow fromLeviticus 23:11 when referring to the day that is to be within the Feast of Unleavened Bread, because they say that
Leviticus 23:11 is referring to the Sabbath that is within the Feast of Unleavened Bread.
Thus instead of beginning the count to Pentecost on the morrow after the Sabbath that is within the Feast of

Sabbath, the 21st is NOTTHEmorrow after the Sabbath that is within the seven days of unleavened bread.
The day that Leviticus 23:11 is referring to that is to be within the seven days of unleavened bread is the day when
the priest shall wave the sheaf before Yahweh, to be accepted for you, not the Sabbath which precedes the day
when the priest shall wave the sheaf before Yahweh.
What day is the morrow after the Sabbath according to Leviticus 23:11? Sunday! Sunday is the day that is to be
within the seven days of unleavened bread, not the Sabbath, as some mistakenly teach. Sunday is the day when
the priest shall wave the sheaf before Yahweh, and this is to be done during the seven days of unleavened bread

Please note that when properly counting to Pentecost that:
#1 As all the other instructions are carried out during the Festivals of Yahweh in the 23rd chapter of
Leviticus, the instructions given concerning the sheaf of the wave offering will ALWAYS be carried out
during the festival of Unleavened Bread.
#2 The sheaf of the wave offering will ALWAYS be within the seven days of unleavened bread as
instructed in Leviticus 23:11.
#3 The day of the wave offering will ALWAYS be a day of unleavened bread.
#4 The first week in the count of the Feast of Weeks willALWAYS
be a part of the Feast of Unleavened
Bread.
#5 The seven weeks that lead up to the day of Pentecost will ALWAYS be complete weeks as instructed in
Leviticus 23:15.

Lev. 23:11,15 both of these verses of Scripture are referring to the first day of the week (the morrow
after the Sabbath), or the Sunday, that is within the Feast of Unleavened Bread.
Lev. 23:15 this verse of Scripture then describes that there are to be seven Sabbaths that follow
the morrow after the Sabbath, or the first day of the week, that is within the Feast of
Unleavened Bread.
Lev. 23:16 this verse of Scripture then describes the Sunday, or first day of the week, that is after the
seventh Sabbath of the seven Sabbaths that are mentioned in the previous verse of
Scripture. Pentecost is always on the morrow after the seventh Sabbath which is the
same as saying the first day of the eighth week.
The method of calculating the count to Pentecost in the example below uses the morrow after the Sabbath that is
within the seven days of unleavened bread to begin the count from as instructed in Leviticus 23:11,15.

according to Lev.23:15,16.
Most who use the Sabbath that precedes the morrow after to calculate the count to Pentecost will deny that they
include that Sabbath for the calculation to Pentecost, but if that Sabbath is not used by them to calculate the count to
Pentecost then what does that make the first morrow after in the count to Pentecost? Evidently they will claim that
it is the morrow after the [zero] Sabbath in order to stake the claim that the morrow after the seventh Sabbath is
day 50? But by naming that Sabbath zero does not change the fact that it is Sabbath # 1, which makes the 6 th
Sabbath Sabbath # 7. (0-6=7) Thus, the morrow after the seventh Sabbath is still day 43 rather than, as it should
be, day 50.
The morrow after the Sabbath that is Calculating the count to Pentecost
within the 7 days of unleavened bread from the Sabbath that is within
is erroneously excluded in the count April the 7 days of unleavened bread

Saying that, the Sabbath that is within the se ven days of unleavened bread cannot be numbered, when it is used to
calculate the count to Pentecost, is only an attempt to make a false calculation appear to be Scriptural. The fact ofthe matter is that there are eight Sabbaths used to calculate Pentecost when beginning the count to Pentecost after
the Sabbath that is within the seven days of unleavened bread. The proper method to calculate Pentecost is by
beginning the count on the morrow after the Sabbath that is within the seven days of unleavened bread, which
excludes the Sabbath that precedes it, and the morrow after the Sabbath that is within the seven days of
unleavened bread is the day that is located to begin the count to Pentecost rather than the Sabbath. Thus the count
is calculated from the Sunday that is within the seven days of unleavened bread rather than the Sabbath that is
within the seven days of unleavened bread.
Please note that by locating the Sabbath that is within the seven days to begin the count on the morrow after it
that that Sabbath is used in the calculation in order to begin the count to Pentecost and that with that Sabbath thereare a total of eight Sabbaths in the calculation to Pentecost no matter what number a person assigns that Sabbath.
Every Sunday Is A Morrow After The Sabbath
It is often questioned, Which Sabbath is Leviticus 23:11 referring to? However, Leviticus 23:11 is not referring to
the Sabbath, Leviticus 23:11 is referring to, the morrow after the Sabbath. Therefore, the question that needs to
be answered is, Which morrow after the Sabbath is Leviticus 23:11 referring to? The answer to this question is,
The one that is within the seven days of unleavened bread. With the knowledge that every Sunday is a morrow
after the Sabbath it becomes apparent that the day Leviticus 23:11 is referring to, that is to be within the seven days
of unleavened bread, is Sunday, because Sunday is the morrow after the Sabbath.
Simply put, the first day of the week is the day that Levit icus 23:11 is referring to when it mentions, the morrow
after the Sabbath. There is no other day than the first day of the week that Leviticus 23:11 is referring to. The only
day that Leviticus 23:11 is referring to is the day when the priest is to, wave the sheaf before Yahweh. Therefore,
the day when the priest is to wave the sheaf before Yahweh is the day that is to be within the seven days of
unleavened bread.
In other words, the statement that many use in reference to what day the priest is to wave the sheaf before
Yahweh, according to what we are told in Leviticus 23:11, is on the morrow after the Sabbath (that is within the
seven days of unleavened bread) the priest shall wave it.

The expression, on the morrow after the Sabbath within the seven days of unleavened bread, cannot be used in
reference to both ways, but depending on how it is punctuated it can be referring to one way or the other. Although
Hebrew is without punctuation, it does make a difference in English, but in all of the English translations that I have
seen there is no punctuation within the words, on the morrow after the Sabbath, which is translated from Leviticus
23:11. Therefore, Leviticus 23:11 is not referring to the Sabbath that is within the seven days of unleavened
bread, which if it were it would be translated something like, on the morrow, after the Sabbath, the priest shall
wave it. However, the way that this verse of Scripture is translated it is evident that this verse of Scripture is
referring to the morrow after the Sabbath that is within the seven days of unleavened bread, because within the
words, on the morrow after the Sabbath the priest shall wave it, the re is no punctuation. This is not only evident
from how the English grammar is but it is also evident from the Hebrew grammar (see appendix 1, I-M).
We do need to be careful of words that are added, even if they are intended to help, (Dt. 4:2; 12:32; Josh. 1:7; Pro.
30:6; Ecc. 3:14; Rev. 22:18) because some help words actually change the meaning of Yahwehs inspired word,
which is the case for some who read Leviticus 23:11 with the help words, within the seven days of unleavened
bread, added to the words, on the morrow after the Sabbath. But we also need to pay attention to added
punctuation, which can also change the meaning of Yahwehs inspired word. However, this is not to say that all
help words or that all punctuation is a hindrance, it is only to say that it should be noted that even in all of the
English translations that I have seen there is no punctuation within the phrase, on the morrow after the Sabbath,
which rightfully causes the meaning of these words to refer to the first day of the wee k, rather than the Sabbath.
One Verse, One Meaning
Although help words are often read into this verse of Scripture (Lev. 23:11) because this verse of Scripture IS
referring to a day that is to be within the seven days of unleavened bread; without the help words some are left
wondering when it is that the priest shall wave the sheaf before Yahweh. However, without the help words,
within the seven days of unleavened bread, added to the words, on the morrow after the Sabbath, it is clear that the
day when the priest shall wave the sheaf before Yahweh is on the morrow after the Sabbath, which is the first
day of the week, or also known as Sunday.
Therefore, because it is clear that from the words on the morrow after the Sabbath, that the day when the priest
shall wave the sheaf before Yahweh is on the first day of the week, or a Sunday, then from the SAME words that
7/28/2019 The Morrow After the Sabbath is Sunday

In one breath they proclaim: In reference to the day when the priest shall wave the sheaf before
Yahweh, on the morrow after the Sabbath means Sunday , or the
first day of the week.
But in their next breath they proclaim: In reference to the day that is within the seven days of unleavened
bread, on the morrow after the Sabbath, means the Sabbath.
This is double talk.
In reference to both, the day that is to be within the seven days of unleavened bread and the day when the priest shallwave the sheaf before Yahweh, the morrow after the Sabbath means the SAME thing, the first day of the week,
or Sunday!
The Sabbath Is The Holy Day
Something to be noted is that Leviticus 23:11 only mentions two days: the morrow and the Sabbath, but only
one of those days is specifically being referred to, which is to be within the seven days of unleavened bread.
Although two days are mentioned in this verse of Scripture this verse of Scripture is referring to one day and one
day only, it is referring to the day when the priest shall wave it (the sheaf). Clearly, the day when the priest shall
wave it (the sheaf) is the day that is to be within the seven days of unleavened bread, which is, on the morrow
after the Sabbath, or the day of unleavened bread that is on the first day of the week.
It is interesting to note that when Yahweh is referring to the Sabbath for the day that we are to rest on that many
ignore those words and rest on the morrow after the Sabbath. However, it is also interesting that when Yahweh is
referring to the morrow after the Sabbath, that many insist that it must be the Sabbath that he is referring to and
that it is degrading to Yahweh to even consider that he would making a reference to a day other than a holy day.
However, to acknowledge that Yahweh is referring to the morrow after the Sabbath rather than the Sabbath
when Yahweh is the one making the reference to that day would not be making the Sabbath day less holy, but it
would be degrading to Yahweh if we were to ignore the day that he truly is referring to. That would be like saying

Two Days Mentioned, One I denti f ied
Although some who teach that the count to Pentecost cant begin until after the Sabbath that is within the seven
days of unleavened bread will proclaim that they do begin the count to Pentecost on the morrow after the Sabbath
that is within the seven days of unleavened bread, but they use manipulative tactics to cause others to believe that
they begin the count to Pentecost on the morrow after the Sabbath that is within the seven days o f unleavened
bread. Those who say that the count to Pentecost cant begin until after the Sabbath that is within the seven daysof unleavened bread actually dont begin the count to Pentecost on the morrow after the Sabbath that is within the
seven days of unleavened bread, they begin the count to Pentecost on the morrow after the Sabbath that is after
the Sabbath that is within the seven days of unleavened bread.
Please note that each Sunday is a morrow after the Sabbath , as illustrated in the examples below, and in the
example on the left it shows that the count to Pentecost begins on the morrow after the Sabbath that is within the
seven days of unleavened bread, while the example on the right shows the count to Pentecost beginning on the
morrow after the Sabbath that is after the Sabbath that is within the seven days of unleavened bread. Only one
way can be correct, of course, but please note the difference:

What is clearly being expressed in Leviticus 23:11 is:
#1. The morrow after the Sabbath = the first day of the week
#2. The first day of the week = Sunday
#3. Sunday = the day that is to be within the seven days of unleavened bread
The priest is to wave the sheaf before Yahweh on the day of unleavened bread that is on Sunday.
What day is the morrow after the Sabbath? Sunday!
What day is the first day of the week? Sunday!What day is Leviticus 23:11 referring to? Sunday!
What day is to be within the seven days of unleavened bread? Sunday!
What day of unleavened bread is the priest to wave the sheaf on? Sunday!
How The Controversy Began
Because of the controversy caused from the pharisaic view that the count to Pentecost always begins on the morrow
after the first annual Sabbath of the seven days of unleavened bread; the question has been diverted from, which
morrow after the Sabbath, to, which Sabbath? However, after proving that the Sabbath being spoken of in
Leviticus 23:11 is not the annual Sabbath, that it is the weekly Sabbath, the question that truly needs to be
answered is, Which morrow after the Sabbath? And again, the answer to that question is, the one that is within
the seven days of unleavened bread.
The 14th20th of April (of no given year) represents the 7 days of unleavened bread:

Either way you look at it, although there are two days mentioned in Leviticus 23:11, Leviticus 23:11 is specifically
only referring to ONE OF THOSE DAYS, and the day that Leviticus 23:11 is referring to is NOT THE
SABBATH. Again, if Leviticus 23:11 were referring to the morrow after the first (annual) Sabbath then the day
of unleavened bread that Leviticus 23:11 would be referring to would be the second day of unleavened bread, NOT
THE DAY OF UNLEAVENED BREAD THAT IS ON THE SABBATH . However, because Leviticus 23:11
is referring to the morrow after the (weekly) Sabbath, the day of unleavened bread that Leviticus 23:11 is referring
to is the day of unleavened bread that is on the first day of the week, NOT THE DAY OF UNLEAVENED
BREAD THAT IS ON THE SABBATH. Simply put, Leviticus 23:11 is referring to the day of unleavened
bread that is on the morrow after the Sabbath, NOT THE ONE THAT IS ON THE SABBATH!
However, the focus on what day Leviticus 23:11 is referring to has been diverted by the pharisaic view, that the
count to Pentecost always begins on the morrow after the first annual Sabbath, which would be the second day ofunleavened bread, therefore, the Sabbath has become the subject and the day that they insist this verse of Scripture
is referring to that must be within the seven days of unleavened bread, rather than the day of unleavened bread when
the priest shall wave [the sheaf]. But even in the pharisaic view the subject is not the Sabbath. The day that
this verse of Scripture truly is referring to is the day when the priest shall wave the sheaf before Yahweh.
Therefore,because the day when the priest shall wave sheaf before Yahweh is the whole focus of Leviticus 23:11 ,
and because that day is on a Sunday, the question that needs to be answered is, Which Sunday? And as already
noted, the Sunday that Leviticus 23:11 is referring to when the priest waves the sheaf before Yahweh is the one that
is within the seven days of unleavened bread.
Although when the first day of unleavened bread is on the weekly Sabbath even the pharisaic view on how to count
the Feast of Weeks will put Pentecost on the right day, which is on the Sunday that is 50 days from the Sunday that
is within the seven days of unleavened bread, but that does not make their way of counting right, because six times
out of seven the date for Pentecost will be wrong. The same is true of those who believe that the count to Pentecost
always begins on the morrow after the Sabbath that is after the Sabbath that is within the seven days of
unleavened bread. Six times out of seven the way that they begin the count of the Feast of Weeks Pentecost will
turn out to be on the right date, on the Sunday that is 50 days from the Sunday that is within the seven days of
unleavened bread, but that does not make their way of counting right, because one time out of seven the date for
Pentecost will be wrong.
Every year when the first day of unleavened bread is on the first day of the week, by beginning the count to
Pentecost on the morrow after the Sabbath that is after the Sabbath that is within the seven days of unleavened
bread that day will not be within the seven days of unleavened bread; it will be after the seven days of unleavened

Both the Greek and the Hebrew are saying the same thing; they are both referring to the first day of the week, and
please note that the Sabbath does not even come into question in the Greek. The Sabbath is excluded in the
Greek text, which in the Hebrew it is excluded as well even though it is mentioned. In the Hebrew the reference is
to the morrow after the Sabbath, not the Sabbath.
Some will say that this proves nothing, but to me it demonstrates that because of how the Greek reads in Leviticus
23:11 that when people get the idea that Leviticus 23:11 is referring to the Sabbath that is within the seven days of
unleavened bread that they are misunderstanding what is read from the Hebrew. This is evident because the
Septuagint was translated into the Greek from the Hebrew and the Sabbath does not even come into question in
the Greek, which is just a reflection of how the Hebrew reads.
Leviticus 23:11 is not the only verse of Scripture that deals with the day of the wave offering where it is illustratedthat the day when the priest shall wave the sheaf before Yahweh is to be on the morrow after the Sabbath that is
within the seven days of unleavened bread; every example given in Scripture where the day of the wave sheaf
offering can be identified it is within the seven days of unleavened bread. (Josh. 5:10-12; Jn. 20:15)
Furthermore, for those who reason that when the Septuagint says, on the morrow of the first day, that the first
day is a reference to the first day of unleavened bread, i nstead of being a reference to the first day of the week, they
are miserably mistaken. If this is a reference to the first day of unleavened bread then the day that this verse of
Scripture is referring to, when the sheaf of the wave offering is to be offered, would be set on that day of unleavened
bread and that day alone, because it reads, on the morrow. However, instead of being set on the morrow afterthe first day of unleavened bread it is set on the morrow of the first day of the week which allows for it to be
offered on any one of the seven days of unleavened bread when that day of unleavened bread ends up being on the
first day of the week.

It is a misunderstanding of Scripture to calculate the count to Pentecost from the Sabbath that is within the sevendays of unleavened bread, because by doing so, not only will the day of the wave sheaf offering will be outside of
the seven days of unleavened bread when the first day of unleavened bread is on the first day of the week but there
be eight Sabbaths used in the calculation of the Feast of Weeks and Pentecost will end up being on the morrow after
the eighth Sabbath rather than being on the morrow after the seventh Sabbath as instructed (Lev. 23:16).
Again, please note that when one includes the Sabbath that is prior to the morrow that Leviticus 23:11 is
referring to then the morrow after that Sabbath is the morrow after the first Sabbath in the count to Pentecost. Thus,
that Sabbath becomes the first Sabbath in the count to Pentecost, which does not line up with Scripture at all. By
using this method of counting there are eight Sabbaths that are used in the calculation, and the morrow after the
seventh Sabbath ends up only being day 43 instead of day 50 as instructed (Lev. 23:16):

seven days of unleavened bread rather than calculating the count to Pentecost from the Sabbath that is within the
seven days of Unleavened bread.
By calculating the count to Pentecost from the morrow after the Sabbath that is within the seven days of
unleavened bread, as instructed in Leviticus 23:11, rather than calculating the count to Pentecost from the Sabbath
that is within the seven days of unleavened bread: the sheaf of the wave offering is properly put within the seven
days of unleavened bread, as instructed in Leviticus 23:11, rather than allowing it to occur after the seven days of
unleavened bread; there will only be seven Sabbaths used to calculate Pentecost, as instructed in Leviticus 23:15,
rather than using eight; and the morrow after the seventh Sabbath will be day 50, as instructed in Leviticus 23:16,
rather than being day 43:

In Leviticus 23:15 it is revealed what is meant by the phrase on the morrow after the Sabbath as stated in Leviticus
23:11. In Leviticus 23:15 it is revealed that the morrow after the Sabbath is the day that ye brought the sheaf of
the wave-offering.
In 2 Peter 1:20 it is revealed that, no prophecy of scripture is of any private interpretation. Therefore, the phrase
found in Leviticus 23:11, the morrow after the Sabbath, is referring to the day that ye brought the sheaf of the
wave-offering, NOT THE SABBATH, because it is so stated in Leviticus 23:15 that the morrow after the

Appendix 1
The First Day of Unleavened Bread is a High Day
One of the first things that pops into a persons mind who reasons that the sheaf of the wave offering cannot be on
the first day of unleavened bread is that the first day of unleavened bread is a High Day. Therefore, it is reasoned
that Leviticus 23:11 must be referring to the weekly Sabbath that is within the Feast of Unleavened Bread, because
if Leviticus 23:11 were referring to the morrow after the Sabbath which is within the Feast of Unleavened Bread,
then the sheaf of the wave offering would at times be on the first day of unleavened bread which is a High Day.Thus, it is reasoned that this would be forbidden, because no work is to be done in the day of holy convocation.
Is this reasoning sound?
While it is true that the first day of unleavened bread is a High Day, a day of holy convocation, and that no work is
to be done in it, what is somehow overlooked is that the seventh day of the Feast is also a High Day (Ex. 12:6; Lev.
23:8; Num. 28:25), and when always offering the sheaf of the wave offering after the weekly Sabbath that is within
the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the sheaf of the wave offering will at times be on the seventh day of unleavenedbread, which is also a High Day. So then, this cancels out their reasoning.

Exodus 12:16 is used in an effort to prove that the first day of unleavened bread is a holier day than the last day of
unleavened bread, because in the first day of unleavened bread, nomanner of workshall be done Therefore, it
is reasoned that these instructions go beyond the command for the other days of holy convocation, which only
stipulates that no servile work shall be done.
Is this reasoning sound?
While it is true that no manner of workshall be done in the first day of unleavened bread, the problem that the
people have who use this type of reasoning for their proof that the sheaf of the wave offering cannot be on the first
day of unleavened bread, but say it could be on the last day, is that they only use a partial quote for their
reasoning.
What is true for the first day of unleavened bread, that nomanner of workshall be done in it, the same is also
found to be true for the last day of unleavened bread. This is revealed when the rest of the message is viewed in
Exodus 12:16 concerning the matter that, no manner of workshall be done.
The truth of the matter is that no manner of work shall be done in the first day of unleavened bread, but the whole
truth of the matter is that this is not only to be applied to the first day of unleavened bread, but this is to be applied to
both of the holy convocational days of unleavened bread. The whole truth of the matter is revealed when looking
past the partial quote which reveals that no manner of workshall be done the rest of the quote reveals that, no
manner of work shall be done IN THEM, not just the first day, but the first day and the se venth day of unleavenedbread. (Ex. 12:16)
If it were true that the sheaf of the wave offering cannot be waved on the first day of unleavened bread because no
manner of workshall be done in it, then the same is true of the last day of unleavened bread because no manner
of work shall be done IN THEM, the first and the seventh days of unleavened bread.
Therefore, if you believe that the sheaf of the wave offering can be waved on the last day of unleavened bread but
you are proclaiming that the sheaf of the wave offering cannot be waved on the first day of unleavened bread,
because no manner of work shall be done in it, your reasoning is canceled out because what is true of the first
day of unleavened bread, that no manner of work shall be done in it, the same is true of the last day of unleavened
bread, because no manner of work shall be done IN THEM. (Ex. 12:16)

In order to strengthen their reasoning that other offerings could not be offered on Passover day, other than the
Passover offering, they say that if other offerings were offered on the day of the Passover, then that would take away
meaning from the most holy offering of all which is in direct relation concerning the one time sacrifice that our
Savior offered, being Himself. (1 Cor. 5:7)
Is this reasoning sound?
While it is true that the Passover Lamb is in direct relation to the sacrifice that our Savior offered, Himself being the
Lamb of Yahweh (Jn. 1:29,36), it is not true that the only offering allowed on the first day of unleavened bread
is the Passover offering. Our Savior not only was the fulfillment of the Passover offering, but He was the
fulfillment of all the commanded offerings. (Heb. 9:24-25; 10:10-11)
So, why all the hoopla about when the sheaf of the wave offering is to be offered, if the Messiah is the fulfillment of
that offering? It is important to know when the sheaf of the wave offering is, because knowing when the day of
wave offering is on is what determines when the observance of the Feast of Weeks is.
Concerning other offerings not being allowed on Passover day, which is the first day of unleavened bread; beginning
in Numbers 28:18 we read, INTHE FIRST DAY shall be an holy convocation; ye shall do no manner of servile
work therein: But ye shall offer a sacrifice made by fire for a burnt-offering unto Yahweh; two young bullocks, and
one ram, and seven lambs of the first year: they shall be unto you without blemish: And their meat-offering shall be
of flour mingled with oil: three tenth deals shall ye offer for a bullock, and two tenth deals for a ram; A several tenthdeal shalt thou offer for every lamb, throughout the seven lambs: And one goat for a sin-offering, to make an
atonement for you. Ye shall offer these beside the burnt-offering in the morning, which is for a continual burnt-
offering. After this manner ye shall offer daily, throughout the seven days, the meat of the sacrifice made by fire, of
a sweet savour unto Yahweh: it shall be offered beside the continual burnt-offering, and his drink-offering.
Numbers 28:18-24
One thing that needs to be noted within the verses of Scripture which were just quoted is that, because there are
offerings commanded by Yahweh to be carried out on a day of holy convocation, this is proof positive evidence
that the offerings cannot be considered to be work, as Yahweh would not command His people to break His
commandments which state that no work is to be done on His days of holy convocation. Furthermore, the
proclamation that the sheaf of the wave offering cannot be offered on the first day of unleavened bread because the
only offering allowed on the first day of unleavened bread is the offering of the Passover lamb is canceled out,
because Scripture plainly reveals that other offerings besides the offering of the Passover lamb are allowed on the

complete nights to make up their 3 complete days (72 hrs.). Although there are seven complete weeks in the count
of the Feast of Weeks there is nothing that is said that the sheaf of the wave offering had to be offered procicly at
sundown on the first day of the week in order for the count to be seven complete weeks. The command of when to
offer the sheaf of the wave offering simply says, on the morrow after the Sabbath the priest shall wave it. And
ye shall offerthat day when ye wave the sheaf an he lamb without blemish of the first year for a burnt-offering unto
YahwehAnd ye shall count unto you from the morrow after the Sabbath, from the day that ye brought the sheaf of
the wave-offering; seven Sabbaths (not weeks) shall be complete. (Lev. 23:11,12,15)
In other words, what had to be complete was seven Sabbaths, not weeks, Even unto the morrow after the seventh
Sabbath (not week) shall ye number fifty days:

Also, considering that Yahushua didnt offer himself as being the first of the firstfruits from the dead until the day
portion of the day of the wave offering (Jn. 20:17) in representation of the wave sheaf offering for the barely
harvest, being the first of the firstfruits in the first resurrection, shows that the sheaf of the wave offering does not
have to be offered precisely at the beginning of the day in order to make complete weeks when counting the Feast of
Weeks. The count begins on that day not mattering when on that day the sheaf of the wave offering is offered.

The proper way to count the Feast of Weeks is to exclude the Sabbath that precedes day one which properly puts the
sheaf of the wave offering within the seven days of unleavened bread:

X X X X X X X Sabbath excludedDay 1 of the 7 days of unleavened bread begins the count of 50 1

Saying that the sheaf of the wave offering cant be offered on the first day of unleavened bread, the 14 th, because on
Passover day one would have to wait until the day portion of the day to offer the sheaf of the wave offering so that it
wouldnt inter fear with the Passover rituals, and by doing so complete weeks are not used in the counting of weeks,
is another mute point.
The sheaf of the wave offering does not need to be offered until the day portion of the day not mattering which day
of unleavened bread lands on the first day of the week, as is illustrated when Yahushua offered himself in
representation of the wave offering on the day portion of the fourth day of unleavened bread. (Jn 20:17)
Furthermore, the instructions for the count to Pentecost is not that we have seven complete weeks from the precise
moment that the sheaf of the wave offering is offered, the instructions are that we have seven complete Sabbaths
from the day that ye brought the sheaf of the wave-offering. (Lev. 23:15)
The full day when the sheaf of the wave offering is offered is calculated as day one no matter when on that day the
sheaf of the wave offering is offered. Thus, although not commanded, there are seven COMPLETE WEEKS, but
also there are seven complete Sabbaths, which are commanded.
7/28/2019 The Morrow After the Sabbath is Sunday
31/58
31
Therefore, because the sheaf of the wave offering is mentioned as a separate item after the discussion of the rituals
of the entire seven days of unleavened bread does not mean that the sheaf of the wave offering cannot be offered
during the other seven days of unleavened bread (although some have evidently use this faulty reasoning in order to
justify their belief that the sheaf of the wave offering was always offered on the morrow after the Sabbath
(Sunday) that followed the seven days of unleavened bread) it also does not mean that the sheaf of the wave offering
cannot be offered on the first day of unleavened bread, Passover day. Thus, this reasoning too is canceled out.
To say that the sheaf of the wave offering must always be after passover day because the instructions for passover
precede the instructions given for the wave sheaf offering is just another mute point. Naturally the instructions for
the wave sheaf offering would not be included with the instructions given for the passover because the instructions
for the wave sheaf offering is not exclusive for passover day. The wave sheaf offering can be on any one of the
seven days of unleavened bread when that day of unleavened bread is on the first day of the week.
Waving The Sheaf Represents The Resurrected Messiah
Another point of reasoning that is used to say that the sheaf of the wave offering cannot be on the first day of
unleavened bread is that some will reason that the waving of the sheaf represents the resurrected Messiah.
Therefore, they reason that the waving of the sheaf cannot be on the first day of unleavened bread because theMessiah hadnt been resurrected yet.
Is this reasoning sound?
How could a person who believes that the sheaf of the wave offering can be on the 2 nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, or 7th days of
unleavened bread use any one of these reasons? All of these reasons used are proven to be against what they
themselves believe. But this is how the process of elimination works which proves that the words of these men aremerely words of babble.
With the reasoning used that the sheaf of the wave offering cannot be on the first day of unleavened bread, because

The Day When The Sheaf Was Waved In Joshua 5
Is AfterThe First Day of Unleavened Bread
Joshua 5 then is used to reason that the sheaf of the wave offering cannot be on the first day of unleavened bread,
because the day when the sheaf was waved as recorded in this chapter is after the first day of unleavened bread.
Therefore, it is reasoned that because the day when the sheaf was waved, as recorded in this chapter, is after the first
day of unleavened bread, then it must always be after the first day of unleavened bread and can never be on the first
day of unleavened bread. (For a further review of what day the omer was on in Josh 5 see appendix 2)
Is this reasoning sound?
(Honestly, I cant believe some of the reasons that people come up with that they actually try to say proves
something, but is all one can do in these cases is reason against reason. So, here goes nothing.)
Is it true that because Joshua 5 records the sheaf of the wave offering as being after the first day of unleavened
bread that the sheaf of the wave offering must always be after the first day of unleavened bread and that this proves
that it can never be on the first day of unleavened bread?
The only way that this type of reasoning could absolutely hold to be true would be if the day of the wave offering
could only be waved on the day of unleavened bread as recorded in Joshua 5, or if the Passover were on the first day
of unleavened bread in this case, but such is not the case. Therefore, using such reasoning as this is not any more
logical than saying that because the day when the sheaf of the wave offering was on as recorded in Joshua 5 is not
on the 7th, 6th or 5 th days of unleavened bread, then that proves that the sheaf of the wave offering must always be
waved BEFORE those days.
Furthermore, the sheaf of the wave offering as recorded in Joshua 5 is after the second and third days of unleavened
bread, but that is no indication that it must always be after those days. Therefore, just because the sheaf of the wave
offering in Joshua 5 was recorded as being after the first day of unleavened bread that is no more an indication that
it cant be offered on that day any more than it is an indication that it cant be on the second or third days of
unleavened bread because it was offered after those days nor is it an indication that the sheaf of the wave offering
7/28/2019 The Morrow After the Sabbath is Sunday
33/58
33
Joshua 5 naturally records that the sheaf of the wave offering was after the first day of unleavened bread because
the first day of unleavened bread as recorded in that chapter was not on the first day of the week (see appendix 2).
Any Scriptural reference recorded when the first day of unleavened bread is not on the first day of the week will
naturally show that the sheaf of the wave offering is after the first day of unleavened bread.
The only way that Joshua 5 would successively prove that the sheaf of the wave offering could not be on the first
day of unleavened bread would be if the first day of unleavened bread as recorded in that chapter were on the first
day of the week and that the wave offering wasnt offered on that day, or if the day of the wave offering could be on
no other day of unleavened bread other than the day of unleavened bread as recorded in Joshua 5, but such is not the
case.
The Septuagint & Other More Reliable Sources
Another attempt that some use to say that the sheaf of the wave offering cannot be on the first day of unleavened
bread is that some people will proclaim to have older and more reliable sources than what is reveled in the Masoretic
text, and one such source is said to be the Septuagint.
The claim is that the Septuagint, or other more reliable sources, reveals that the sheaf of the wave offering mustalways be after the first day of unleavened bread, Passover day. Therefore, the Masoretic text cannot be used for
proof that the sheaf of the wave offering can be on the first day of unleavened bread.
Is this reasoning sound?
By using this tactic it is actually reasoned that they have some sort of hidden truth when they do not reveal what
these sources actually say. So, I say that the proof is in the pudding. I am not going to trust what I am told thesesources say. Show me the source so I can decipher if what you are telling me it says is actually what it says or not.
This reasoning would have some merit if such were the case, but in this case, the Septuagint reveals nothing

Because many people will approach us with the words of what some so-called experts have to say, we still need to
decipher if what the experts are saying to be true or not, because in most cases, even the experts do not know
what the truth is according to the word of Yahweh. (1 Cor. 1:26,27)
Even though it can be intimidating when this approach is used on us, what has been an effective measure for me that
have proven what many so-called experts have said to be false is the use of the process of elimination.
Furthermore, a person might come to us with what they perceive an expert to be saying, but the person coming to
us with what they say the words of an expert are, they might be confu sed themselves as to what the words of the
expert are saying, thinking that the expert is saying something that was not the intent. Therefore, I want to
examine what many experts actually do say concerning what we read in Leviticus 23:11, while keep ing in mind
that even the words of experts have to be tested to the words of Yahweh, because it is the word of Yahweh which
we are to live by no matter what the experts say. (Dt. 8:3; Mt. 4:4)
So far, according to the word of Yahweh, the day that Leviticus 23:11 is describing to be within the seven-days of
unleavened bread is, the morrow after the Sabbath, not the Sabbath. So, lets also consider what the experts
have to say concerning this verse of Scripture and lets see if the words of the experts agree with the word of
Yahweh.
According To The Grammar
Because the issue of the Hebrew grammar has been said to be an important roll in deciphering what day Leviticus
23:11 is referring to; I would like to look at a few different translations to see how they have rendered the words
within this verse of Scripture to see what day the translators say Leviticus 23:11 is referring to. After all, the
translators surely must know Hebrew grammar in order to translate:
On the morrow after the Sabbath THE SCRIPTURESon the morrow after the Sabbath The Word of Yahweh standard English language version
on the morrow after the Sabbath AUTHORISED KING JAMES VERSION
on the morrow after the Sabbath REVISED STANDARD VERSION
7/28/2019 The Morrow After the Sabbath is Sunday
35/58
35
This is discovered through the absence of any punctuation within these words that are referring to what day it is that
Leviticus 23:11 is referring to. If Leviticus 23:11 were referring to two different days, there would have to be some
sort of punctuation within the quotes above, but there are none.
What this is showing us is that ALL of these, experts, who knows Hebrew grammar in order to translate the
Scriptures into English, agree that this verse of Scripture is only referring to ONE DAY, not two.
So, what we have to determine is which day it is that Leviticus 23:11 is referring to. Is Leviticus 23:11 referring to
the morrow ofthe Sabbath which is within the Feast of Unleavened Bread, or is Leviticus 23:11 referring to the
morrow afterthe Sabbath which is within the Feast of Unleavened Bread? IT IS NOT BOTH!
Remember, whichever day Leviticus 23:11 is referring to is the day when the priest shall wave the sheaf beforeYahweh. Therefore, it isobvious that this verse of Scripture cant be referring to the Sabbath that is within the
Feast of unleavened bread. Furthermore, even if the Sabbath that is mentioned was referring to the first annual
Sabbath of Unleavened Bread Leviticus 23:11 would still be referring to the morrow after the Sabbath, not the
Sabbath.
Lets also take a look at what the expert said, which is quoted from the book, THE COMPLETE WORD STUDY
OLD TESTAMENT, so that we are sure to comprehend what it really is that he is saying and see if what he is saying
is properly being applied to Leviticus 23:11 and to see if what he actually says can be properly applied to the word
of Yahweh, because what I was told was that according to what he has said is that the day being referred to inLeviticus 23:11, which is to be one of the seven-days of unleavened bread, is the noun with the definite article.
However, this has been discovered to be untrue according to the word of Yahweh. So, either what the expert has
said is untrue, or what he has said has been misunderstood.
The words that are identified as being nouns with the definite article the book, THE COMPLETE WORD STUDY
OLD TESTAMENT, has this to say on page 2274 #10, The Definite Article (df) in Hebrew is prefixed, irrespect ive
of gender or number, to the word it identifies. Nouns without the definite article stress the class to which they
belong, while nouns with the definite article stress the identity of the particular member. Specific
identification of an indefinite member of a class is accomplished by using the noun in association with an indefinite
pronoun. There is no indefinite article in Hebrew, thou shalt make an atonement for the alter, and sanctify it(Ex. 29:37); whitherthe spirit was to go, they went (Ezek. 1:12). See also 11.
The word that we are dealing with in Leviticus 23:11 is the Sabbath which is a noun with the definite article So

The Noun With The Definite Article In Numbers 33:3
In Numbers 33:3, the Passover is the noun with the definite article but it is not the day that this verse of Scripture
is referring to. Within the group of days that are mentioned in Numbers 33:3: the first month is mentioned, the
fifteenth day of the first month is mentioned, and the morrow after the Passover is mentioned. Although the
Passover is the noun with the definite article it is not the day that this verse of Scripture is referring to, nouns with
the definite article stress the identity of the particular member of these mentioned days. Therefore, the day
that Numbers 33:3 is referring to is not the Passover, which is the noun with the definite article, the noun with the
definite article, which is the Passover stresses the identity of the particular member of the days that are
mentioned which is the morrow after the Passover, or the 15

3 4 5 6 7 8 9 definitearticle stress the identity of the particular
10 11 12 13 14 15 16 member of these mentioned days. Therefore, the day
17 18 19 20 21 22 23 that Numbers 33:3 is referring to is the morrow after
24 25 26 27 28 29 the Passover, which is the 15th day of the first month.

The Noun With The Definite Article In Leviticus 23:16
We find this same thing to be true within what we are told in Leviticus 23:16 where a number of days are
mentioned, which are: the morrow after the seventh Sabbath, and fifty days. So, even though there are a
number of days mentioned, this verse of Scripture is specifically only speaking of one of those days and the noun
with the definite article, the seventh Sabbath is not the day that this verse of Scripture is referring to, the
seventh Sabbath is the noun with the definite article and it is us ed to identify the day that is a member of the days
mentioned, which is the morrow after the seventh Sabbath, not the seventh Sabbath.
Thus, like Leviticus 23:16 is not referring to the seventh Sabbath, which is the noun with the definite article,
Leviticus 23:11 is not referring to the Sabbath, which is the noun with the definite article. In both of these verses
of Scripture the morrow after is the day that is being referring to.
And again, what needs to be noted is that the day that the noun with the definite article identifies IS A
MEMBER of the days in question. That day is not and cannot be separate from the days mentioned.

Now, from the chart above, can you identify the day that Leviticus 23:15 is referring to? Like Leviticus 23:11 the
noun with the definite article is the Sabbath, and, in fact, the Sabbath that is mentioned in Leviticus 23:11 is thesame Sabbath that is mentioned in Leviticus 23:15. So, which morrow after the Sabbath is Leviticus 23:11
referring to: day 1, day 8, day 15, day 22, day 29, day 36, or day 43?
Although Leviticus 23:15 is mute concerning which Sabbath the morrow is to be after the day that Leviticus 23:15 is
referring to is identified as being the day that ye brought the sheaf of the wave offering. Therefore, the morrow
after the Sabbath and the day that ye brought the sheaf of the wave offering IS ONE AND THE SAME
DAY. (2Pet. 1:20)
Sun Mon Tue Wed Thur Fri Sat
Day 1 is the day that Lev. 23:15 is referring to, 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 1st Sabbathalthough days 8, 15, 22, 29, 36 and 43 are also 8 9 10 11 12 13 142nd Sabbatha morrow afterthe Sabbath. But the morrow 15 16 17 18 19 20 213rd Sabbathafter the Sabbath referred to in Lev. 23:15 is 22 23 24 25 26 27 284th Sabbaththe day that ye brought the sheaf of the wave 29 30 31 32 33 34 355th Sabbathoffering.

What also needs to be noted within this verse of Scripture (Lev. 23:15) is that the noun with definite article is not
among the days mentioned in this verse of Scripture. Thus it is evident that when a day is to be identified within
7/28/2019 The Morrow After the Sabbath is Sunday
39/58
39
The Sabbath is the noun with the definite article, but it is not a member of
the mentioned days that Lev. 23:15 are referring to, which are: the morrow
after the Sabbaththe day that ye brought the sheaf of the wave offering,and seven Sabbaths shall be complete. Nouns with the definite article
stress the identity of the particular member, but they do not need to be a
member of the days of which the day is within that is identified by them.

The noun with the definite article in Leviticus 23:15 is the Sabbath that occurs before the mentioned days even
begin; it is not a member of the days mentioned. What this reveals is that the noun with the definite article is what
is used to identify a member of something, but it does not have to be a member of what the thing is a member of
which it is identifying. Although the noun with the definite article CAN be a member of the days mentioned,
as was found to be the case in Numbers 33:3 and Leviticus 23:16, but the noun with the definite article does
not have to be a member of what it identifies is a member of as is revealed with this case in Leviticus 23:15.
However, the day that the noun with definite article identifies must be a member of the days mentioned.
These are the rules of Hebrew grammar and this is exactly what is found to be the case within all of these verses of
Scripture (Num. 33:3; Lev. 23:15,16) and this is also true concerning the day that Leviticus 23:11 is referring to that
is within the seven-days of unleavened bread.
When the 1st day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread is on a Sunday, the Sabbath that is used to determine the
morrow after as instructed in Leviticus 23:11 precedes the 7-days of unleavened bread and this same Sabbath is
7/28/2019 The Morrow After the Sabbath is Sunday

Comparing verses 11 & 15 of Leviticus 23 has already been touched upon, but for a more complete look at the
comparisons of these two verses of Scripture, please note that:
#1. In both of these verses of Scripture there is a Sabbath mentioned.
#2. In both of these verses of Scripture it is the same Sabbath that is mentioned.
#3. In both of these verses of Scripture they are referring to the morrow after that Sabbath.
#4. In both of these verses of Scripture, the morrow after that Sabbath is the same morrow.
#5. In both of these verses of Scripture the morrow after that Sabbath is to be within the days that they are
referring to.
#6. In both of these verses of Scripture, the Sabbath, that is mentioned can precede the days that the morrow
after it is to be in.
#7. In both of these verses of Scripture they are referring to the sheaf of the wave offering.
#8. In both of these verses of Scripture the sheaf of the wave offering is disclosed to be on the morrow after
the Sabbath that is within the days that they are referring to.
When taking all of this into consideration; it is revealed that the sheaf of the wave offering is not only to be within
the seven days of unleavened bread, but the sheaf of the wave offering is also to be within the seven weeks that
counts to Pentecost.
The morrow after the Sabbath, which is the day that ye brought the sheaf of the wave-offering (Lev. 23:15) is
not only to be within the seven days of unleavened bread, but the morrow after the Sabbath, when the priest shall
wave it (Lev. 23:11) is to be within the days counting the Feast of Weeks.
Simply put, Leviticus 23:11 is not speaking about the weekly Sabbath that is within the seven days ofunleavened bread while Leviticus 23:15 is speaking about the first Sunday that begins the count of the Feast
of Weeks, Leviticus 23:11,15 are both speaking about the same day, the only Sunday that is within the Feast of
Unleavened Bread and the first Sunday that begins the count of the Feast of Weeks
7/28/2019 The Morrow After the Sabbath is Sunday
41/58
41
While it is true that when the first day of unleavened bread is on the first day of the week that the Sunday within the
seven days of unleavened bread is before the Sabbath that is within the seven days of unleavened bread, but
Leviticus 23:11 is not referring to the morrow, which is after the Sabbath which is within the seven days ofunleavened bread, Leviticus 23:11 it is referring to the morrow afterthe Sabbath. Period!
What needs to be noted is that Leviticus 23:11 is not referring to a day which is after another day that is within the
seven days of unleavened bread, Leviticus 23:11 is referring to a day that is to be within the seven days of
unleavened bread. Please note that there is a difference. I will do my best to explain it to you.
Leviticus 23:11 does not even make any mention of the seven days of unleavened bread, that is read into this verse
of Scripture because Leviticus 23:11 is referring to a day of unleavened bread. However, we need to be sure that we
are not reading something into this verse of Scripture that isnt there. What is in this verse of Scripture is, And heshall wave the sheaf before Yahweh, to be accepted for you: on the morrow after the Sabbath the priest shall wave
it.
Please note that the seven days of unleavened bread are not even mentioned in this verse of Scripture, so the only
days that we have to work with in order to determine what day Leviticus 23:11 is speaking of is, the morrow
and the Sabbath. So, WHICH DAY IS LEVITICUS 23:11 REFERRING TO? You
