It is used metaphorically in the New Testament to describe the people of God as a field that God cultivates, emphasizing the relationship between God as the divine farmer and believers as His field. Cultural and Historical Background: In the agrarian society of the ancient Near East, farming was a central part of life. The imagery of fields and cultivation was commonly understood and used in teaching and parables. The concept of God as a farmer who tends to His people would resonate deeply with an audience familiar with the hard work and care involved in agriculture.
