“Three quarts of Barley for a day's wages”, given to Anno Domini by Jesus, October 4th, 2026

Don’t forget that vegetable foods provide a lot more nutrition than does meat. Animals had to eat vegetable foods before their bodies became meat. Meat is acidifying to the body, while vegetable meats (grains, pulses nuts and fruits) are alkalinizing, favoring the body’s circulation.

Recently, the Holy Spirit has drawn my attention to scripture regarding barley grain in the Last Days. The staple grain of barley would sell for ⅓ the price of wheat.

Barley appears in Revelation 6:6 as part of the Third Seal judgment, representing severe famine, economic crisis, and extreme inflation.

Revelation 6:6:

6 And I heard what seemed to be a voice from the midst of the four living creatures, saying, A quart of wheat for a denarius [a whole day’s wages], and three quarts of barley for a denarius; but do not harm the oil and the wine!

This mention of barley follows the appearance of the black horse and its rider holding scales, which symbolizes famine and economic rationing. A voice announces that three quarts (or measures) of barley cost a denarius, which was a full day’s wage for a working laborer. This verse indicates hyperinflation of staple grain prices. While one quart of wheat also cost a whole day’s wage, three quarts of barley could feed a family, though at an inflated cost that consumed a worker’s entire daily earnings with nothing left over for other needs.

Barley was considered a cheaper, lower-status grain than wheat, so this verse means that people during this period will be forced to spend their entire day’s pay just to afford basic subsistence food.

Barley is mentioned in about 36 scriptures across the Old and New Testaments, usually representing a staple food for the poor, animal feed, or an early spring harvest marker. In the Bible, barley represents humility, God’s unexpected provision, and new beginnings because it was a hardy grain, eaten mostly by the poor and harvested first in the spring. Barley was cheaper and less refined than wheat, making it the everyday bread for poorer households and laborers.

In Ruth 3:15, Boaz tells Ruth to hold out her garment or shawl, and he pours into it “six measures of barley” so she will not return to her mother-in-law, Naomi, empty-handed. The exact Hebrew term used for “measures” is sometimes understood as seahs. One seah is roughly equivalent to 2.3 to 3 gallons.

In John 6:9, a boy brings “five barley loaves and two fish”, which Jesus multiplies to feed the crowd of 5,000.

Jesus and His disciples ate barley bread more often than they did wheat bread. In the times ahead, so can we.

During the coming months, as the Holy Spirit leads you to stock up on provisions, consider stocking barley. Barley grain contributes substantially to the Recommended Daily Intake of all nine of the essential amino acids. Its lower amount of lysine can be paired with beans or lentils, which are rich in lysine. One cup of cooked pearled barley has 193 calories, 3.6 grams of protein, 44.3 grams of carbohydrates, 0.7 grams of fat, and 6 grams of fiber. Barley also contains key vitamins and minerals such as selenium, niacin, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, and potassium.

Remember, the unleavened bread of the Last Supper broken and distributed by Jesus to His disciples was most likely made from barley flour and water and cooked on heated stones. When Jesus stated, “Take, eat; this is my body, which is given for you. Do this in remembrance of me” (Matthew 26:26), He was breaking barley bread. We can too.

note: There’ll be another one coming on “food fraud”, as processors put into food to bulk it out, what shouldn’t be in food. Jesus is very concerned about this, even angry, because it messes up his “holy temple”, the human body.
