“This name points out that the holiday was first and foremost an agricultural festival. Each of the three aliyah festivals was linked to the harvest of crops in the land of Israel. The Feast of Unleavened Bread (Passover) was associated with the harvest of firstfruits, a barley harvest (Leviticus 23:10–11). The Feast of Harvest (Pentecost), also called Weeks because it occurred seven weeks after Passover, was associated with the harvest of wheat (Exodus 34:22). The Feast of Ingathering was the final harvest of all the remaining produce of the land.” (Page 22)
