Best Answer

Firstfruits. The offering of firstfruits took place at the beginning of the harvest and signified Israel's gratitude to and dependence on God.

The offering of the firstfruits to God was a statement of gratitude and a confession that the benefits of the harvest came by his grace. Also, in giving the very first of their produce to God, Israel learned not to hoard but to trust God for provision.
