parashah nitzavim- vayelech
Moshè transferred leadership to Joshua and wrote a Torah scroll which he handed over to the Levites.
Moshè summoned Yeoshua and told him to be strong and courageous, for G‑d will be going before him and will not forsake him.
Moshè then wrote the entire Torah and gave it to the Kohnaim and the Israelite elders.

The plant also has a long history as a powerful 'healing herb' used topically for wounds, cuts and abrasions.

This medicinal action is also reflected in some of the common names mentioned below, such as staunchweed and soldier's woundwort.The stalks are dried and used as a randomising agent . (wikipedia)

The Species of Fruit Brought as Bikurim Bikurim wood Frame
The Israelites are commanded to bring the first of their fruit to the Temple, and to deliver all tithes to their proper recipients.
This section introduces us to the mitzvah of bikurim, the requirement to bring one's first fruits to the Holy Temple. This mitzvah applies to fruits and produce grown in the land of Israel, and only those for which the land of Israel is praised: wheat, barley, dates, figs, grapes, pomegranates and olives. When in the Temple, the owner of the fruits recites a brief thanksgiving prayer to G‑d and presents the produce to the priests.
