“For the Lord thy God bringeth thee into a good
land, a land of brooks of water, of fountains and
depths that spring out of valleys and hills; a land of
wheat and barley, and vines and fig trees, and
pomegranates, a land of olive oil and honey; a land
wherein thou shalt eat bread without scarceness,
thou shalt not lack anything in it, a land whose
stones are iron and out of whose hills thou mayest
dig brass.” Deuteronomy 8. 7- 9
