• The beginning of a new crop before God-man in a condition which not even innocent Adam was in, the Man of God’s counsels, the second Man, the last Adam. (“Leviticus 23” by J.N. Darby)
• In point of fact the wave-sheaf was waved on the first day of the week that followed the passover. So the Lord was crucified on Friday, lay in the grave on the sabbath or last day of the week, and rose on the first day or Sunday as the Gentiles called it. He was raised from the dead on the very day the wave-sheaf was waved before Jehovah. Little did the priest who waved it conceive the power and character of the truth set forth in the first-fruits he was thus presenting before the God of Israel. But the Risen One and Raiser of the dead had left the grave and broken its power for believers (“The Feasts of Jehovah: the Wave-Sheaf and the Wave Loaves” by W. Kelly)
• For it is the light of His resurrection which chases away all gloom and every tear of anxious sorrow. It is the resurrection of the Lord which brings out the acceptance of the believer without question before God. In His death our evil was dealt with atoningly, the sole righteous basis for the forgiveness of sinful man; but Christ's resurrection declares that the sins are forever gone for those who believe. “He was delivered for our offenses, and raised for our justification.” “On the morrow after the sabbath the priest shall wave it.” The type is fully confirmed by the striking coincidence of the facts. (“The Feasts of Jehovah: the Wave-Sheaf and the Wave Loaves” by W. Kelly)
