The fourth feast is known in Hebrew as Shavuot, which means "weeks." This feast is called the Feast of Weeks, because God specifically told the sons of Jacob that they were to count seven weeks from First Fruits and then the day after, this fourth feast was to be observed.

Seven weeks are 49 days. Add one day "the day after," and it brings the total to fifty days. This fourth feast was to occur precisely fifty days after First Fruits.

During these 50 days between the Resurrection and Shavuot, Yeshua met with His disciples many times, and on the 40th day He acceded into heaven. Yeshua had told them to stay in Jerusalem and "...wait for what the Father had promised."
