10美地乃是流奶与蜜之地。你能告诉我，奶与蜜是属于哪一界的生命么？它们是属于动物的生命，或是属于植物的生命？请注意圣灵在圣经里给它们安排的次序。在申命记八章八节，蜜是和植物摆在一起的，先是小麦、大麦、葡萄树、无花果树、石榴树、橄榄树，然后是蜜。而在三十二章十四节，奶是和动物摆在一起：牛的奶酪、羊的奶和羊羔的脂油。圣灵是非常公道的，祂将蜜和植物摆在一起，又将奶与脂油和动物摆在一起。……因为圣灵深深知道，蜜多是和植物生命有关联的。蜜多是出自于花和树。当然也牵涉到一部分的动物生命—那小动物，蜜蜂。没有花我们不可能有蜜，没有蜜蜂我们也不可能有蜜。……这两样彼此合作；这两种生命调和在一起，就产生蜜。但是蜜主要是属于植物生命（包罗万有的基督，七三至七四页）。
10The good land is a land flowing with milk and honey. Can you tell to which life the milk and the honey belong? Do they belong to the animal life or to the vegetable life? Notice how the Holy Spirit’ arranges them in the Word. In Deuteronomy 8:8 the honey is put with the plants: the wheat, the barley, the vines, the fig trees, the pomegranates, the olive trees, and then the honey. And in Deuteronomy 32:14 the milk is put with the animals: the cattle, the flock, the milk, and the butter. The Holy Spirit is very fair. He put the honey with the plants, and He put the milk with the butter and the animals. Why? Because the Holy Spirit is well aware that, for the most part, honey has to do with the plant life. It is derived mostly from the flowers and the trees. Of course, a part of the animal life is involved—that little animal, the bee. Without the flowers we cannot have honey, and without the bees we cannot have honey either…These two cooperate; these two lives are mingled together, and honey is produced. But honey, for the most part, belongs to the vegetable life. (CWWL, 1961-1962, vol. 4, “The All-inclusive Christ,” p. 247)
