19 This second or great feast of green fruits being not far from fifty days after the first was evidently intended for the feast of pentecost (Lev. 23 :15.16) and The feast of tabernacles united. It was continued four days. At evening each man put up his green bough and took it again the next day: and during the evening the men and women united in social dances, wives following their husbands, and young women and girls, their brothers of others of the same clan with themselves. This feast was provided for in the same manner as the first. The men of the chief town furnished meat, while every family brought new fruit ready cooked from home as a thank offering.
