(29) The first of thy ripe fruits.--Heb., of thy fulness. "Firstfruits" were the spontaneous tribute of natural piety among almost all nations. They were called by the Greeks ???????, by the Romans primitive. Abel's offering (Genesis 4:4) was one of the "firstlings of his flock," and Cain's probably one of firstfruits. In the present passage it is assumed that firstfruits are due, and the stress is laid upon offering them promptly, without "delay." Delay would show a grudging spirit.

Of thy liquors.--As wine and oil. (Compare Nehemiah 10:37; Nehemiah 10:39.)

The firstborn of thy sons.--See the Note on Exodus 13:2; and on the means of redeeming firstborn sons, see Exodus 13:13, and Num. 17:15, 16. . . .

Verses 29, 30. - Law concerning first-fruits. God required as first-fruits from his people,

1. The first-born of their children;

2. The firstborn of all their cattle; and

3. The first of all the produce of their lands, . . .
