TSK · Exodus 22:29

then you must give over to the LORD the first offspring of every womb. Every firstling of a beast that you have– the males will be the LORD’s.

The first of the firstfruits of your soil you must bring to the house of the LORD your God.“You must not cook a young goat in its mother’s milk.

“When an ox, lamb, or goat is born, it must be under the care of its mother seven days, but from the eighth day onward it will be acceptable as an offering gift to the LORD.

Giving God the Best You must set apart for the LORD your God every firstborn male born to your herds and flocks. You must not work the firstborn of your bulls or shear the firstborn of your flocks.

Elisha Miraculously Feeds a Hundred People Now a man from Baal Shalisha brought some food for the prophet– twenty loaves of bread made from the firstfruits of the barley harvest, as well as fresh ears of grain. Elisha said,“Set it before the people so they may eat.”

Honor the LORD from your wealth and from the first fruits of all your crops;

Micah Laments Judah’s Sin Woe is me! For I am like those gathering fruit, and those harvesting grapes, when there is no grape cluster to eat, and no fresh figs that my stomach craves.

Not only this, but we ourselves also, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we eagerly await our adoption, the redemption of our bodies.
