Strong's Lexicon asiph: Gathering, harvest, ingathering Original Word: אָסִיף Word Origin: Derived from the root אָסַף (asaph), meaning "to gather" or "to collect." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G4864 (συναγωγή, synagōgē) - gathering, assembly - G2590 (καρπός, karpos) - fruit, harvest Usage: The term "asiph" primarily refers to the act of gathering or collecting, often in the context of harvest. It is used to describe the time of ingathering of crops, particularly in the agricultural cycle of ancient Israel. This term is associated with the end of the agricultural year when the produce of the land is collected and stored. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, agriculture was central to daily life and the economy. The "asiph" or ingathering was a significant event, marking the completion of the harvest season. It was a time of celebration and thanksgiving, as the people gathered the fruits of their labor. The Feast of Ingathering, also known as the Feast of Tabernacles or Sukkot, was one of the major festivals in the Jewish calendar, commemorating the harvest and God's provision.
