Rashi Studies (Advanced)

Sifrei says that the obligation to bring first-fruits begins immediately upon entering the land. Rashi says that first-fruits are not brought until all of the Jews are settled in their own farms. A spontaneous outpouring of gratitude, or a sign of deep appreciation?

Rashi chooses the more unlikely translation to take into account that sometimes, the Jewish nation does not make G‑d proud.
