Fresh oil, new olive oil; freshly pressed oil listed among the land's staple products alongside grain and wine.
Distinguished from the more general shemen ('oil'), yitshār specifically denotes freshly pressed olive oil in its unprocessed, newly yielded state. It appears almost formulaically in the triad 'grain, new wine, and fresh oil' (dāgān, tīrōsh, yitshār), cataloguing the three signature blessings of the promised land. God gives or withholds this triad as covenant blessing or curse (Deut 7:13; 11:14; 28:51; Hos 2:8-9; Joel 2:19). It must be tithed (Deut 12:17; 14:23) and its firstfruits given to the priests (Deut 18:4; Neh 10:37-39). The word functions less as a culinary term than as a covenantal marker of agricultural prosperity.
Senses
1. fresh oil, olive oil — Freshly pressed olive oil, appearing formulaically in the triad with grain and new wine as covenant blessings (Deut 7:13; 11:14; Hos 2:8; Joel 2:19). Subject to tithing (Deut 12:17; 14:23) and priestly firstfruits (Num 18:12; Deut 18:4; Neh 10:37). Spanish 'aceite,' French 'huile,' and German 'Öl' use general oil terms, though Hebrew distinguishes yitshār from shemen. 23×
