Lesson Summary

The session on February 2 focuses on The Feast of First Fruits, which is celebrated for eight days starting with Passover. Key points discussed are:

• Adam, Adamah, and dam signify "man," "ground," and "blood" in Hebrew.
• Hebrews contrasts the blood of Abel and Jesus in a different light.
• Yahweh's Passover at the threshold, rather than entering the house.
• Debate between Good Friday and Good Wednesday accuracy due to a Hebrew misunderstanding.
• Jesus's time in the tomb for three days and nights.

The Feast of First Fruits exemplifies a spiritual principle, where the first part of the harvest was offered to God. This day symbolizes Jesus' resurrection as the first-fruits of those resurrected. The crossover of the Red Sea, an Old Testament event, is paralleled with Jesus' resurrection in the New Testament as both involve victories over enemies. Key verses and principles highlighted are:

• Christ's resurrection as the first-fruits in 1 Corinthians 15:20.
• The concept of first-fruits making the whole batch holy.
• The transition from Adam to Christ as seen in 1 Corinthians 15:45-49.
• Jesus as the firstborn of all creation, signaling his importance and redemption principles attached to firstborns.
• The victory of faith and belief in Jesus overcoming the world in 1 John 5:4-5.
