FESTIVAL OF UNFERMENTED CAKES [Ex 34:18]



<< BREAD in the bible [INDEX] >>

<< First fruits [PROFILE] >>

This festival began Nisan 15, the day after Passover, and continued for seven days through Nisan 21. (See PASSOVER.) Its name is derived from the unfermented cakes (Heb., mats·tsohth′), the only bread allowed during the seven days of the festival. Unleavened bread is kneaded with water but without yeast. It has to be hurriedly prepared if fermentation is to be prevented

““‘On the 15th day of this month is the Festival of Unleavened Bread to Jehovah.+ Seven days you should eat unleavened bread.+ 7 On the first day, you will observe a holy convention.+ You should not do any hard work. 8 But you are to present an offering made by fire to Jehovah for seven days. There will be a holy convention on the seventh day. You should not do any hard work.’”" - Leviticus 23:6-8

"16 “‘In the first month, on the 14th day of the month, will be Jehovah’s Passover.+ 17 And on the 15th day of this month, there will be a festival. Unleavened bread will be eaten for seven days.+ 18 On the first day there will be a holy convention. You must not do any hard work. 19 And you will present as a burnt offering made by fire to Jehovah two young bulls, one ram, and seven male lambs each a year old. You should offer sound animals.+ 20 You should offer them with their grain offerings of fine flour mixed with oil,+ three tenth measures for a bull and two tenth measures for the ram. 21 You will offer a tenth measure respectively for each male lamb of the seven male lambs, 22 as well as one goat as a sin offering to make atonement for you. 23 Aside from the morning burnt offering, which is for the regular burnt offering, you will offer these. 24 You will offer these in the same manner each day for seven days as food,* an offering made by fire as a pleasing* aroma to Jehovah. It should be offered along with the regular burnt offering and its drink offering. 25 On the seventh day you should hold a holy convention.+ You must not do any hard work" - Num 28:16 -25

The first day of the Festival of Unfermented Cakes was a solemn assembly, also a sabbath. On the second day, Nisan 16, a sheaf of the firstfruits of the barley harvest, the first crop to ripen in Palestine, was brought to the priest. Prior to this festival no new grain, bread, or roasted grain from the new harvest could be eaten. The priest offered such firstfruits to Jehovah symbolically by waving a sheaf of the grain to and fro, while a sound ram in its first year was offered as a burnt offering along with a grain offering moistened with oil and a drink offering. (Le 23:6-14)

*Barley (first harvest of the year)

“Jehovah continued to speak to Moses, saying: 10 “Speak to the Israelites and tell them, ‘When you eventually come into the land that I am giving you and you have reaped its harvest, you must bring a sheaf of the firstfruits+ of your harvest to the priest.+ 11 And he will wave the sheaf back and forth before Jehovah to gain approval for you. The priest should wave it on the day after the Sabbath. 12 " - Leviticus 23: 9-11

"Test me out, please, in this regard,” Jehovah of armies says, “to see whether I will not open to you the floodgates
of the heavens and pour out on you a blessing until there is nothing lacking" - Malachi 3:10

“‘If YOU continue walking in my statutes and keeping my commandments and YOU do carry them out, 4 I shall also certainly give YOUR showers of rain at their proper time, and the land will indeed give its yield, and the tree of the field will give its fruit. 5 And YOUR threshing will certainly reach to YOUR grape gathering, and the grape gathering will reach to the sowing of seed; and YOU will indeed eat YOUR bread to satisfaction and dwell in security in YOUR land."Leviticus 26: 3 - 5 (NWT)
