Tonight begins The Feast of First Fruits!
The Lord said to Moses, “Speak to the Israelites and say to them: ‘When you enter the land I am going to give you and you reap its harvest, bring to the priest a sheaf of the first grain you harvest. He is to wave the sheaf before the Lord so it will be accepted on your behalf; the priest is to wave it on the day after the Sabbath. On the day you wave the sheaf, you must sacrifice as a burnt offering to the Lord a lamb a year old without defect, together with its grain offering of two-tenths of an ephah of the finest flour mixed with olive oil—a food offering presented to the Lord, a pleasing aroma—and its drink offering of a quarter of a hin of wine. You must not eat any bread, or roasted or new grain, until the very day you bring this offering to your God. This is to be a lasting ordinance for the generations to come, wherever you live.
Leviticus 23:9-14
After the sunset on the sabbath.... something amazing happened!
The Feast of First Fruits was FULFILLED!
The Sign of Jonah was FULFILLED!
In the morning the women went to the tomb to find Him gone. And the angels said,
"HE IS RISEN!"
They ran back to tell the others. Some had to see for themselves.
And for the next forty days Yahshua Jesus walked with them,
ate with them, and talked with them,
and prayed with them.
But now Christ is risen from the dead, and has become the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep. For since by man came death, by Man also came the resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ all shall be made alive. But each one in his own order: Christ the firstfruits, afterward those who are Christ’s at His coming.
1 Corinthians 15:20-23

ReplyDeleteThis video made a very pointed prophetic connection between First Fruits and Yahshua Jesus.
On the day of First Fruits, a sheaf of barley was to be brought to the priest, a first "sample" of the harvest. The High Priest would accept the First Fruits, this sample sheaf and thereby accept and bless the entire rest of the harvest.
