First Fruits
.
Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye be come into the land which I give unto you, and shall reap the harvest thereof, then ye shall bring a sheaf of the firstfruits of your harvest unto the priest: And he shall wave the sheaf before the LORD, to be accepted for you: on the morrow after the sabbath the priest shall wave it. Leviticus 23: 10-11
The Feast of Firstfruits is the day after the Sabbath during the Feast of Unleavened bread.
In other words, DURING the Feast of Unleavened bread, when you get to the Sabbath day, the NEXT day is the Feast of Firstfruits.
When the children of Israel first came into the promised land, they were told to give a Firstfruit offering for inheriting the land of Israel. It is commanded in Torah that an offering of thanks be given when offering Firstfruits, for dwelling in and inheriting the land of Israel. A declaration of thanks is made by the person when offering the Firstfruits offering:
In this course, you will learn that the themes of firstfruits are resurrection, deliverance and new beginnings. It will also explain how firstfruits is thematically associated with the firstborn and how the firstborn was originally given the kingship, priestly and double portion blessings.

Watch a video OR listen to audio teachings.
.
With each subject, you can either watch a full length video teaching on each course OR listen to same course in shorter 25 minute audio segments.
After you have watched the video or listened to the audio, there is an online quiz with in-depth study questions so you can dig deeper into the scriptures with each lesson.
You can take the courses online to receive ribbon points for completing a course and badge points for completing a subject.
When you complete all courses and all subjects, you can receive a
certificate of completion. This certificate is equivalent to a bachelor's or master's degree in Hebraic studies. We will be looking into college accreditation for the program in the future for those who desire to have this.
Alternatively, if you are a Pastor or home group leader, you can lead your home group or congregation through the questions in a small group discussion format.
