Core Text — Menachos 84b
וְאֵין לִי אֶלָּא בִּכּוּרֵי קְצִיר חִטִּים, קְצִיר שְׂעוֹרִים מִנַּיִן? תַּלְמוּד לוֹמַר וְחַג הַקָּצִיר בִּכּוּרֵי מַעֲשֶׂיךָ אֲשֶׁר תִּזְרַע בַּשָּׂדֶה.

English: I would know this only for the first fruits of the wheat harvest. From where for the barley harvest? The Torah says, “the Feast of the Harvest, the first fruits of your works that you sow in the field.”
