Honey
This was so plentiful in
Palestine
, that the country was often described as a land “flowing with
milk
and honey” (
Ex. 3:8,17
8
And I am come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them up out of that land unto a good land and a large, unto a land flowing with milk and honey; unto the place of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites. (Exodus 3:8)
17
And I have said, I will bring you up out of the affliction of Egypt unto the land of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, unto a land flowing with milk and honey. (Exodus 3:17)
). It is symbolical of what is sweet in
nature
; to be partaken of with discretion, lest it cause vomiting (
Prov. 25:16,27
16
Hast thou found honey? eat so much as is sufficient for thee, lest thou be filled therewith, and vomit it. (Proverbs 25:16)
27
It is not good to eat much honey: so for men to search their own glory is not glory. (Proverbs 25:27)
). It was strictly forbidden to add honey to
the offerings
of the
Lord
made by
fire
(
Lev. 2:11
11
No meat offering, which ye shall bring unto the Lord, shall be made with leaven: for ye shall burn no leaven, nor any honey, in any offering of the Lord made by fire. (Leviticus 2:11)
). What is of nature, though it be sweetness, can have no place in what is offered to
God
.
The Lord
Jesus
when in service on
earth
said to His
mother
, “
Woman
, what have I to do with thee?” though when His service was over He commended her to
John
