I'm sorry, there was a return from exile during Pentecost? Can you tell me where you got that information?
God bless,

Acts 2:5 kjv
5. And there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, out of every nation under heaven.
They had returned from the nations.
They had been living in other nations. They spoke other languages.
Acts 2:6 kjv
6. Now when this was noised abroad, the multitude came together, and were confounded, because that every man heard them speak in his own language.
I can’t tell if they were in Jerusalem for a feast, holy day, etc
They were raised out of country (our language).
The only righteous (Out of country) Jews I read about are the Ezekiel timeframe Jews (those who sighed over the sins of Israel.

Hi

You should probably confirm that understanding with the historical record. Every year...that's right, every year...Jews would flood into Jerusalem from all the nations. It would have been a common occurrence at that time of year, every year, that there were Jews from all the nations in Israel. After that gathering they all went back to where they had come from. But this happened every year and had been going on for quite some time by then. It was pretty much equivalent to the requirement for Muslims to go to Mecca, when Passover came to the Israelites.

I brought up the feast days. The booths is one.
However some were living in Jerusalem.
They were from out of country.
In chapter 9 of Ezekiel
1/3 died of ….
1/3 were killed with the sword
1/3 were dispersed to save their lives.
Those who left were to teach where they were sent. Those foreign nations that worshiped with the Jews were blessed.
