A Land of Wheat and Date Honey

“… a land of wheat and barley, of vines, figs, and pomegranates, a land of olive trees and honey…” (“Dvarim”, 8:8).

Ibn Ezra:

– Moshe makes mention of the foods which produce blood.

(Ibn Ezra makes a point that the seven types of food mentioned in this verse increase the blood supply).
