Leviticus 23:14

Verse Leviticus 23:14. Ye shall eat neither bread, nor parched corn, nor green ears] It is right that God, the dispenser of every blessing, should be acknowledged as such, and the first-fruits of the field, c., dedicated to him. Concerning the dedication of the first-fruits, Exodus 22:29. Parched ears of corn and green ears, fried, still constitute a part, and not a disagreeable one, of the food of the Arabs now resident in the Holy Land. See Hasselquist.
