MILK AND HONEY : In ancient Israel, a mixture of milk and honey, with poppies in it, was given to the newly married BRIDE which she drank when she was brought home to her HUSBAND; which is now the case of the church. The Land of milk and honey speaks of prosperity and abundance. The word translated as “flowing” comes from the verb “zoov” which means to flow or gush. Ancient middle eastern people sweetened their foods and wine with honey. They also valued honey for its MEDICINAL virtues. Milk and honey stood in contrast to the bitterness and barrenness they faced. (Biblehub Commentaries)
