Usage: The word אָסִיף is used in the context of agricultural activities, particularly in reference to the harvest season. It is associated with the collection of crops and the celebration of the bounty provided by God. Context: The term אָסִיף appears in the Hebrew Bible in contexts related to agriculture and the harvest. It is often used to describe the time of year when crops are gathered from the fields, marking a period of both labor and celebration. The gathering of crops was a significant event in ancient Israelite society, as it represented the culmination of a season's work and the provision of sustenance for the community. In the Berean Standard Bible, the concept of gathering is illustrated in passages that highlight the importance of the harvest. For example, in Exodus 23:16, the Feast of Ingathering is mentioned: "You are to celebrate the Feast of Ingathering at the end of the year, when you gather in your crops from the field." This feast, also known as the Feast of Tabernacles or Sukkot, was a time of rejoicing and thanksgiving for the harvest. The act of gathering is not only a physical activity but also carries spiritual significance. It serves as a reminder of God's provision and faithfulness, as well as the dependence of the people on His blessings. The harvest season was a time to acknowledge God's role in the fertility of the land and the abundance of the produce.
