Jeremiah 2:3
Excerpted from: The Two Wave Loaves of Pentecost

As another application, Romans 11:16 says that “If the firstfruit is holy, the lump is also holy.” The context does not say definitely, but it seems to be talking about Abraham. He was the early and abundant part of God’s work anciently. In Jeremiah 2:3, the nation of Israel is called the firstfruits of the LORD’s increase. In Hosea 9:10, God says He viewed Israel as the firstfruits on the fig tree. Israel was the early part of God’s labor as well. But what we see is that just as each crop had an early portion that belonged to God, so there are multiple applications of firstfruits metaphorically as well.
