Cereal crop and its harvested produce · dominant
The plural form occurs in harvest and field settings: in 1 Samuel 6:13 the APB renders people reaping a harvest in the valley, and in Isaiah 28:25 it renders the crop being set in rows. The same noun also names produce supplied or used as food: 2 Samuel 17:28 lists it among provisions, 2 Chronicles 27:5 measures it as tribute, and Exodus 29:2 places it in the preparation of unleavened bread.
In the Anselm Project Bible: Across the supplied verses, the APB usually presents the term as “wheat,” including harvest, food, trade, and measured-produce contexts; Exodus 29:2 has “fine wheat flour.” These renderings confirm the verse contexts rather than establish a separate lexical distinction.
