Wave offerings parts of peace-offerings were so called, because they were waved by the priests (Exodus 29:24, Exodus 1:29, Exodus 1:29; Leviticus 7:20-34; Leviticus 1:8; Leviticus 1:9; Leviticus 1:10, Leviticus 1:10, etc.), in token of a solemn special presentation to God. They then became the property of the priests. The first-fruits, a sheaf of barley, offered at the feast of Pentecost (Leviticus 23:17-20), and wheat-bread, the first-fruits of the second harvest, offered at the Passover (10-14), were wave-offerings.
