When a farmer is harvesting, the first produce from his harvest is known as the first fruits. In the Bible, first fruits is also one of God’s dedicated feast days, or appointed times (Lev 23). It was also the day marked for the resurrection of His Son.
Jesus, who is the first fruits of many brethren, rose from the dead or parabolically speaking, awoke from sleep, so that through Him we would be made alive (1 Co 15).
To be spiritually asleep or dead comes from interpreting the Bible like a history book. Jesus was awake to the truth that the Scriptures contained everlasting life. We can grow up in church and read the same book, but never experience the same Jesus!
