Barley

We hear a lot about the barley harvest in Ruth. They actually harvested barley and wheat, but the barley came first - as early as April in some places. Barley was used as food for: horses, mules, donkeys and.....the poor. Here are some interesting ways barley was used:

Making bread (II Kings 4:42; Ezekiel 4:9)
A jealousy offering (Numbers 5:12-15)
The price of an adulteress (Hosea 3:1-2)
The price of a lewd woman (Ezekiel 13:18-19)
An expression of low rank and poverty (Judges 7:13)
