“And Honey Shall He Eat”

K. Douglas Bassett

(Isa. 7:15, 22)

Honey is frequently mixed with various forms of milk-preparations and used upon bread. . . . It is considered very palatable, especially by the children. The context shows that the reference in the text is made particularly to the days of childhood.
