About the Icon: The sending down of the Holy Spirit upon the Apostles, which took place on the fifty-first day (Greek: "pentekoste hemera") following the Jewish Passover, is referred to as Pentecost in the New Testament. The Apostles, His other disciples, & the women who had accompanied Him from the beginning went back to Jerusalem's Mount of Olives after the Lord was taken up into heaven. They anticipated the descent of the Holy Spirit there, as Christ Himself had prophesied, while they prayed fervently. They started preaching & urging others to get baptized after being filled with the Holy Spirit so they may share in God's favor. Pentecost, which is observed 49 days following Holy Week, is the birthday of the Church.
