Garnant covers the count to Pentecost. He looks first at the wavesheaf as Christ and Jesus Christ's Ascension and uses Moses/Jesus parallels. Why count 50 days or seven weeks of Sabbaths? What is a Firstfruit? What does the 40 day of Apostles with Jesus and the 40 days of Moses with God, have to do with our 40 days?
A native of Southern California, Mr Garnant has experience in the precious metals and finance industries and with his wife Becky has for over 40 years served congregations on both coasts (SF/LA/NJ/NY metros). They currently serve in the Los Angeles church and other S CA congregations as needed.
