Dear Eliane,  Yes, I now remember reading this piece of evidence before and yes, it does add up.  Although disappointed for the wait, July 19th is just fine as long as it is this year.  Thank you for re-posting the evidence:   You shall also count for yourselves from the day after the Sabbath that you bring the Wave-Sheaf, seven Sabbaths. They must be complete. Then after the seventh Sabbath, you shall count fifty days, when you shall present a new offering to the Ever-Living. Leviticus 23:15-16   Eliane B (25 May 2012) "Correct Pentecost in 2012 falls on July 19th http://www.fivedoves.com/letters/may2012/elianeb525.htm
