4 Bible Verses about Agriculture, Used Figuratively

The reaper is already getting his wages and harvesting for eternal life, so that the sower shares the reaper's joy. That proverb, 'One sows and another reaps,' holds true here: I sent you to reap a crop for which you did not toil; other men have toiled, and you reap the profit of their toil."

For land which absorbs the rain that often falls on it, and bears plants that are useful to those for whom it is tilled, receives a blessing from God;

as it is written, He scatters his gifts to the poor broadcast, his charity lasts for ever.

(For the earth bears crops by itself, the blade first, the ear of corn next, and then the grain full in the ear.)
