Forty
years after the Jews left Egypt, they finally made it to Israel, the
Promised Land. They still celebrated Pesach every spring, but now Pesach
became important for another reason. For the many Jews who now worked as
farmers, Pesach was the season when their crops first started to bloom.
This was the season when they would harvest the first grain, which they
would later bring to the Temple in Jerusalem and offer to God.
