3. Yom haBikkurim / Firstfruits
Posted by Lev/Christopher on July 14, 2008 at 5:46am in Festivals of Messianic Israel
Discuss the third of the spring festivals.
The first of the barley harvest was brought as an offering to the priest in the Tabernacle/Temple. The priest would present the first of the harvest to Yahweh by waving them back and forth. This reminded the Hebrews that Yahweh gave them the land, and the harvest belonged to Him.
Yah'shua is the Firstfruits (1 Cor. 15:20-23). Yah'shua' resurrection marked the beginning of the harvest of souls. John 12:23-24,32 shows Yah'shua was likened to a grain of wheat falling to the ground and dying to produce a great harvest. Yah'shua arose on Firstfruits.
