In the O/T, what time frame was considered to be the time of the harvest? Was Passover considered part of the Harvest period? Many thanks, Jim |

Good afternoon Jim, Passover is actually only a 1day observance, it seems longer because the day after begins the week long observance of the feast of Unleavened Bread or Matza. At the end of Matza, 50 days are counted to the feast of Shavu'ot (Pentecost) - this is the celebration of the spring harvest, of first-fruits, Lev. 23:10-21. Lev. 23:39-43 is also a feast of first-fruits, of the fall harvest. It is called Feast of Tabernacles, feast of Booths, or just Sukkot. As to your question about Passover being considered a part of Shavu'ot, I don't believe it was other than simply being a reminder that "first-fruits" was just around the corner, kind of like Thanksgiving is a reminder that Christmas is just around the corner. Maybe someone else can help with this question? Still learning, too :-) Cheri |
