About the Book

Passover is seen Israel’s betrothal to God whereas Shavuot is considered the Wedding Anniversary of the Covenant between God and Israel sealed at Mount Sinai. The Ketubah or wedding contract was the Ten Commandments and Torah, Sephardic Jews often recite Hosea 2:19-20 at this time.

Shavuot marks the end of the barley harvest and the beginning of the wheat harvest. Counting the Omer (an Israelite unit of Temple measure for a sheaf) begins with a wave offering of barley and continues for 7 weeks until the wheat offering on Shavuot. Counting the Omer, is a verbal counting of each of the 49 days, representing spiritual preparation and anticipation of Torah lasting from Pesach until the 50th day, Shavuot (Deuteronomy 16:9-10).

About the Author

Revd. Clive Pooley

About the Author
Revd. Clive Pooley formerly taught Religious Studies in a secondary school, before undergoing theological training and becoming a pastor in East London for 15 years. For 12 years he was the senior pastor, leading the congregation into revival and seeing God’s goodness cascade through the members of the church and out into the ethnically diverse community.

As a result the congregation rapidly grew in confidence as they ministered to people outside the four walls of the church building, becoming church. As a result more and more people came alive in the Spirit of God. There was also an increased desire for holiness amongst church members especially as they sought to know God and His ways more fully.

His passion is for people to meet personally with Jesus, to experience the Father’s love and encounter the healing power of the Holy Spirit and so live transformed lives bringing change to their community. Clive continues to write and teach, and minister wherever and whenever.
