What is a wave sheaf?
A Wave Sheaf is a free-will offering to Yahuah of the First-Fruits of the Harvest so that Yahuah would continue to bless the land in which we dwell.
This year we celebrate Passover on Monday, Apr. 3rd, the Shabbat following Passover will be Saturday, Apr. 8th, so the next day Sunday (April 9th) is the Feast of First Fruits. The day of the wave sheaf and the beginning of the Omer Count to Shavuot.
Can we see Messiah within the wave sheaf?
According to 1st Corinthians 15:20 - He is the First - Fruits of the Resurrection.
The Wave Sheaf was made up of three parts:
1. Burnt Offering - A male lamb, a year old, a perfect one. - Yahusha the pure, spotless Passover Lamb of Yahuah who takes away the sin of the world. John 1:29
2. Wave Offering - Fine Flour mixed with oil - Yahusha's body was the Bread from Heaven according to John 6:32-35, mixed with the oil of the Ruach Ha'qodesh - Yahuah's Spirit.
3. Drink Offering - Wine - His blood of Atoning sacrifice. - The Blood of the New Covenant.
1 Corinthians 11:25.
This is why when Mary Magdelene sees Him as the gardener in John 20:15-17 He tells her not to touch Him yet, for He had not yet ascended to the Father.
Yahusha had to go and place His pure blood of atonement on the altar of heaven as the Kohen Hagadol over His own sacrifice under the order of Melchizedek.
The Wave Sheaf was a free-will offering, just as it was with the life of Yahusha, for He said in John 10:11 - "I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down His life for the sheep."
He also stated in John 10:17-18 - that no one takes His life, but that He lays down HIs life Himself.
Yahusha was the Wave Sheaf - He was the First Fruits of the Resurrection so that we could be resurrected with Him at the End Time Harvest.
John 12:24 - Truly, truly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains alone. But if it dies, it will yield a harvest.
- He was offered up by Yisrael -
Caiaphas as the high priest said in John 11:50 "It is better for us that one man should die for the people than that the entire nation should perish.'
Now, this he did not say on his own authority; but being high priest that year he prophesied that Yahusha would die for the nation,
and not for that nation only, but also that He would gather together in one the children of Elohim who were scattered abroad.
Yahusha becoming the Wave Sheaf/First-Fruits enables us to be gathered together in the wheat harvest together at Shavuot.
HalleluYah!
