Leviticus 23:15-16

The Feast of Weeks

¹⁵ ‘And you shall count for yourselves from the day after the Sabbath,

from the day that you brought the sheaf of the wave offering (Passover offering) seven Sabbaths shall be completed. 

Leveticus 23:16

¹⁶ Count fifty days to the day after the seventh Sabbath;

then you shall offer a new grain offering to the Lord.

Count towards Pentecost:

In fact the word Pentecost means to count to 50, or number fifty.

From Passover (Spring time) to Pentecost (Summer time) is 50 days:

When the children of Israel started to journey from Egypt,

(the place of their slavery and bondage on Passover),

the next day (being the 2nd day of Passover),

they started counting towards the 50th day (Pentecost),

Which was going to come unto them on the celebration of Pentecost (being the feast of Shavuot in Hebrew).
