harvests of Yisra'el


                                 The Harvests Of Yisra'el In Their Seasons
                                                             By NeorahYah Germaine Yisra'el



The Spring Harvests
These crops ripen in the spring, usually around the first month, Abib. 
Barley and wheat were planted in the autumn of the previous year, and ripened the following spring.  Barley ripened earlier than wheat, and would've been the grain used for the Pesach, the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the First Fruits, and the Wave Sheaf Offering.
BARLEY.
PEAS
Lentils
Vetch: used as fodder for livestock.
Wheat, along with oats, matured after barley; towards the end of Abib, to the end of the Second Month.  Peas, lentils, and vetch continued to mature and be harvested at this time also.
This harvest may've occurred a little later, depending on climate, soil conditions, and the amount of regional rainfall.

WHEAT
OATS
VETCH
LENTILS

The Summer Harvests

Most of this harvest consisted of grapes, olives, dates, figs, pomegranates, seeds and vegetables; although vegetables factored less in the ancient Hebrew diet.
Grapes were the first to ripen during the summer season; usually beginning in the 3rd Month, and possibly overlapping with grain threshing, if the spring grain yield was abundant.  The grape harvest was usually complete before Cukkot in the Seventh Month.

The Fifth Month

It is a little known fact that there is a Second Harvest of Wheat, occurring at the very end of the Fourth Month, or at the beginning of the Fifth Month; depending again on the climate conditions of the year.  It is this 'New Grain' offering of the  Second Wheat Harvest that is associated with the true timing of Shavu'ot; which occurs on the First Day, of the Fifth Month (Rosh Chodesh); or on the True New Moon Day.  Shavu'ot/Pentecost: Pente(root) = Numerical Prefix '5', or 5TH Month  Shavu'ot, The Feast Of Weeks

The 2nd Harvest Of Wheat
The olive harvest began before Sukkot, but usually continued until well after the fall feasts.

POMEGRANATES
OLIVES

The Autumn Harvests

The autumn harvests occurred just in time for the Feast Of Cukkot.  It was at the time of this harvest, that the Yisraelites were instructed to build sukkahs, live in them for eight days; and to rejoice greatly before Yahuah, in thanksgiving for the bountiful  harvests He had provided.  The celebration would've included the First Fruit of the oil processed from the olives, food cooked from the fruits, and vegetables, breads baked from finely ground grain; even the sukkahs would've been decorated with the fruits of all the year's harvests.  It was a joyous occasion indeed.

The Seventh Month
Olives
Varieties Of Olives
It should be noted that the Yisraelites were given instructions on the types of trees, boughs, and branches they were to use to construct their sukkahs.  They are included here to show the bountiful goodness Yahuah provided for them.
​~Leviticus 23:40~

The Eighth Month
Plowing and sowing of barley and wheat began in time for the following spring harvest.

Go to:  The Judgement Of Egypt.

                                             'Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father Of Lights,
                                                                          with whom there is no change, nor shadow of turning.' 
                                                                                                                 ~James 1: 17~
