Here is a huge proof text. This year, the biggest lesson I learned….oh my, I can’t actually say that there were so many big lessons this year. Still, one that stands out to me is this. If I determine the barley AND the wheat correctly the other 5 species will be perfect in their timing. I learned this later in the year after I had I fretted over the timing of the ripening of the grapes and figs, waiting to see if they would ‘make it on time’. It was about this time that I bumped into this verse.
*Command the children of Israel, and say unto them, My offering, and my bread for my sacrifices made by fire, for a sweet savour unto me, shall ye observe to offer unto me in their due season (mo’ed ×××¢×). Numbers 28:2*
*
*Chapter 28 of Numbers lists the daily offerings, the weekly offerings, the monthly offerings, the Passover offerings, the Feast of Weeks offerings. Chapter 29 picks up with the Feast of Trumpets offerings, the Day of Atonement Offerings, and then the Feast of Booths offerings!
Do you understand, that the appointed times are tied to their individual firstfruits that were to be offered with each feast? That’s kind of mind-blowing all by itself. Just another confirmation of the calendar being filled out by the Deuteronomy 8:8 seven species.Updated Sep 25, 2020, 6:10 PM
