Hebrew halabh, " new milk", milk in its fresh state ( Judg. 4: 19). It is frequently mentioned in connection with honey ( Ex. 3: 8; 13: 5; Josh. 5: 6; Isa. 7: 15, 22; Jer. 11: 5). Sheep ( Deut. 32: 14) and goats ( Prov. 27: 27) and camels ( Gen. 32: 15), as well as cows, are made to give their milk for the use of man. Milk is used figuratively as a sign of abundance ( Gen. 49: 12; Ezek. 25: 4; Joel 3: 18). It is also a symbol of the rudiments of doctrine ( 1 Cor. 3: 2; Heb. 5: 12, 13), and of the unadulterated word of God ( 1 Pet. 2: 2). ( 2.) Heb. hem' ah, always rendered " butter" in the Authorized Version. It means " butter," but also more frequently " cream," or perhaps, as some think, " curdled milk," such as that which Abraham set before the angels ( Gen. 18: 8), and which Jael gave to Sisera ( Judg. 5: 25). In this state milk was used by travellers ( 2 Sam. 17: 29). If kept long enough, it acquired a slightly intoxicating or soporific power. This Hebrew word is also sometimes used for milk in general ( Deut. 32: 14; Job 20: 17). |
