Usage: The term שְׂעֹרָה (se'orah) appears in various contexts throughout the Hebrew Bible, often in reference to agricultural practices, offerings, and as a staple food. It is frequently mentioned alongside wheat, indicating its importance as a primary grain. Context: Barley (שְׂעֹרָה, se'orah) is one of the earliest cultivated grains, significant in the diet and economy of ancient Israel. It is often mentioned in the context of the agricultural cycle, particularly in relation to the barley harvest, which marked the beginning of the harvest season. Barley was used for making bread and porridge and was a common food for both humans and animals. It was also used in religious offerings, as seen in Leviticus 2:14, where the firstfruits of barley are offered to the LORD.
