Bikkurim

“Bikkurim” (“first fruits”) refers to the commandment, detailed in Deuteronomy 26:1-11, to bring first fruits and grains to the Temple and give them to a priest next to the altar. Details of the process are discussed in tractate Bikkurim, which describes the festive procession that accompanied the offering. Bkkurim is often associated with the holiday of Shavuot, since the holiday marked the beginning of the period during which bikkurim were brought.
