Clarke's Leviticus 23:15 Bible Commentary

Ye shall count unto you - seven Sabbaths - That is, from the sixteenth of the first month to the sixth of the third month. These seven weeks, called here Sabbaths, were to be complete, i. e., the forty-nine days must be finished, and the next day, the fiftieth, is what, from the Septuagint, we call pentecost. See the note on Luke 6:1.

Barnes's Leviticus 23:15 Bible Commentary

The morrow after the sabbath - See Leviticus 23:11 note.

Seven sabbaths - More properly, seven weeks (compare Deuteronomy 16:9). The word Sabbath, in the language of the New Testament as well as the Old, is used for "week" (Leviticus 25:8; Matthew 28:1; Luke 18:12, etc.).

Wesley's Leviticus 23:15 Bible Commentary

23:15 From the morrow - From the sixteenth day of the month, and the second day of the feast of unleavened bread inclusively.
