on the morrow after the Sabbath] Not the weekely Sabbath, but the holy day of the feast of unleavened-bread, called a Sabbath, vers. 7. and the second day of the feast, which is the sixteenth day of the moneth Nisan; from which day were reckoned the fifty dayes ended at Pentecost, or Whitsontide, reckoning that second day inclusively. Pentecost, or Whitsontide was kept in memoriall, first of the Israelites coming out of Egypt, Deut. 16. 10, 12. secondly, of the Law given at Mount Sinai: thirdly, for gratefull acknowledgement of the fruitfulnesse of the Land of Canaan. Some make a mysticall allusion hereof, to the giving of the Evangelicall law at Jerusalem in the feast of Pentecost, Act. 2. 1, 2, 3. and to the first fruits of the Christian converts, reaped by the Ministery of the Apostles, according to our Saviours saying, Joh. 4. 37, 38.
