If the apostles were somewhere other than the temple on Shavuot they would of been in rebellion to the Word of יהוה, that said they wouldn’t have received a blessing for it would they? Deut 16. Lev 23. The Holy Spirit certainly wouldn’t of been given to a bunch of Torah breakers gathering in the place of their own choosing, whatever their hearts desires now would it! Certainly no church was born on this day! Instead this is Israel’s promise of renewal fulfilled or fully realized - Jer 31:31.
And when the moed of Shavuot was fully counted by the omer, they were all with one accord in one place. 2 And suddenly there came a sound (as from Sinai) from the shamayim as of a groaning Ruach, and it filled all the Bayit (Hebrew idiom – the temple of yhwh Deut 17:9, 2 Chr 6:6, Ezek 43:21, Lk 24:52)where they were sitting.
Rabbis stood when reading from the torah scroll and sat for torah teaching/homily in the temple and synagogues.
There were two major types of exposition in Yahusha’s days:
The Midrash of orthodox Judaic Talmudism used by the rabbis.
The Pesher of the Qumran used by the Essences.
Midrash contained detailed exegesis, moving from scripture to application.
Pesher takes a revolutionary stance, with little exegesis and a stress on direct fulfillment.
If they were somewhere other than the temple on Shavuot they would of been in rebellion to the Word of יהוה and wouldn’t have received a blessing for it would they? Deut 16. Lev 23. The RHK wouldn’t of been given to a bunch of Torah breakers gathering in their own place of choosing whatever their hearts desires!

3 And there appeared to them divided tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them. 8 4 And they were all filled with the Ruach Hakodesh, and began to speak with other tongues-languages, as the Ruach Hakodesh gave them the utterance.
5 And there were dwelling at Yahrushalayim, Yahudim,1 devout men, out of every nation 2 under the shamayim. 6 Now when this was noised abroad, the multitude came together, 3 and were confused, because every man heard them speak in his own language. 7 And they were all amazed and marveled, saying one to another, See, are not all these who speak Galilaeans? 8 How then do we hear them speaking in our own native language? 9 Parthians, and Medes, and Eylamites, and those Yisraelites dwelling in Aram, among whom were Yahudim, and those from Kappadokia, those from Pontos, and also Asia Minor, 10 Phrygia, and Pamphulia, in Mitzrayim, and in the parts of Libya near Cyrene, and Yahudim and gerim from Romiyah, along with the Yireh-vuvh, 11 Cretans and Arabians, 9 we do hear them speak in our tongues the wonderful works of tvkt.12 And they were all amazed and stunned, and were in doubt, saying one to another, What does this mean? 13 Others mocking said, These men are full of new wine. 14 But Kepha, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said to them, You men of Yahudah, and all you that are staying at Yahrushalayim, 11 be this known to you, and listen to my words: 15 For these men are not drunk, as you suppose, seeing it is but nine o’clock in the morning.
16 But this is that which was spoken by the navi Joel:
Yoel 2:28…and upon the female avadim in those days will I pour out My Ruach.
Two types of tongues:
1. tongues of men, a known language.
2. and tongues of angles, the unknown tongue.
Here in Ch.2: Tongues of men (known language) and at other times in the nations: tongues of angels (an unknown language) 1 Cor. 14:13 Wherefore let him that speaketh in an unknown tongue pray that he may interpret. (unknown language, the language of angels) 1 Cor. 13;1 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels.
The Torah parsha section of scripture that interestingly enough is always read immediately following Shavuot is the inception point of tongues!
Yes tongues is a torah thing!
Bamidbar 11:23. After the graves of the lust with the newly appointed 70 zachanim.
23 And vuvh said to Moshe, Is vuvh’s Arm too short? You shall see now whether My Word meets you, or not.24 And Moshe went out, and told the people the words of vuvh, and gathered the seventy men of the zechanim of the people, and set them all around the Tabernacle. 25 And vuvh came down in a cloud, and spoke to him, and took of the Ruach that was upon him, and gave it to the seventy zechanim: and it came to pass, that, when the Ruach rested upon them, they prophesied, and did not cease.
Prophesied = Naba-to pour forth words of praising, edification, prophecy and songs of divine power sometimes in a language unknown to the speaker/tongues.
If a people would be zealous for YHWH’s land, then YHWH will pour out His new wine and new oil. But we have to be able to contain what He wants to pour out.
• The time of the new wine skin!
Are you ready for a private, spiritual strengthening?
How about a pubic empowering?
These are the two very important and differing components of the power of the RHK that may don’t tap into and remain tied to timidity! 1. A private spiritual strengthening. 2. A public empowering.
19 And I will show wonders in the shamayim above, and signs in the olam beneath; dahm, and fire, and vapor of smoke: 20 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into dahm, before that great and terrible Yom vuvh comes: 13 21 And it shall come to pass, that whoever shall call on the Name of the Master vuvh shall be saved.
You men of Yisrael, 1 listen to these words; gauvh of Natzeret, a man approved of vuvh among you by nisim and wonders and signs, which vuvh did through Him in the midst of you, as you yourselves also know:
They were “fellow Jews” in 2:14 now they’re “fellow Israelites” to stress the fact that the apostles
23 Him, being delivered by the determined counsel and foreknowledge of vuvh, you have taken, and by the hands of Torah-less men, you have crucified and killed:24 Whom vuvh has raised up, having demolished the cords 3 of death: because it was not possible for Sheol to hold Him. 25 For Dawid spoke concerning Him, I saw my vuvh always before my face, for He is on my right hand, that I should not be moved: 26 Therefore did my lev have gilah, and my tongue had simcha; moreover also my body shall rest in tikvah: 27 Because You will not leave my being in Sheol, neither will You allow the Kadosh-One of Yisrael to see corruption.
28 You have made known to me the ways of chayim; You shall make me full of simcha with Your presence. 29 Men and Yisraelite brothers, let me freely speak to you of the patriarch Dawid, that he is both dead and buried, and his tomb is with us to this day.
30 Being a navi, and knowing that vuvh had sworn with an oath to him, that of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, he would raise up the Moshiach to sit on his
kesay; 31 He seeing this before spoke of the resurrection of the Moshiach, that His being was not left in the Sheol, neither did His flesh see corruption. 32 This gauvh has vuvh raised up, of which we all are witnesses.
33 Therefore being as the Right Hand of vuvh exalted, and having received from Abba the promise of the Ruach Hakodesh, He has sent out all this, which you now see and hear. 34 For Dawid is not ascended into the shamayim: 4 but he said himself, the Master vuvh said to My Master, Sit at My right hand, 35 Until I make Your enemies Your footstool. 36 Therefore let kol Beit Yisrael know 5 assuredly, that the Master vuvh has made known that same gauvh, whom you have impaled, as both Melech and Moshiach.
37 Now when they heard this, they were pierced in their levavot, and said to Kepha and to the rest of the shlichim, Men and Yisraelite brothers, what shall we do? 38 Then Kepha said to them, Shuv, and be immersed every one of you in the Name of the Master-Yah 6 gauvh ha Moshiach for the forgiveness of sins, and you shall receive the gift of the Ruach Hakodesh. 39 For the promise is to you, and to your children, and to all that are far off, 7 even as many as vuvh our tvkt shall call. 40 And with many other words did he testify and exhort them, saying, Save yourselves from this sinful generation. 41 Then they that gladly received his word were immersed: and the same day there were added to them about three thousand beings.
42 And they were continuing steadfastly in the apostles’ doctrine, and in fellowship and in the breaking of the loaves, and in prayers.
The four pillars of our daily bread; some really important spiritual tools for daily hope:
43 And fear came upon every being: and many wonders and signs were done by the shlichim. 44 And all that believed were echad, and had all things be-yachad; 45 And sold their possessions and goods, and divided them to all men, as every man had need. 46 And they, continuing daily as echad in the Beit HaMikdash, 11 breaking lechem from bayit to bayit, did eat their food with simcha and a pure lev,
47 Offering tehilla to vuvh, and having favor with all the people. And vuvh added to the congregation of Yisrael daily all those being saved.
