Moses called it “a good land, a land of torrent valleys of water, springs and watery deeps issuing forth in the valley plain and in the mountainous region, a land of wheat and barley and vines and figs and pomegranates, a land of oil olives and honey, a land in which you will not eat bread with scarcity, in which you will lack nothing, a land the stones of which are iron and out of the mountains of which you will mine copper. ” — Deuteronomy 8: 7 - 9.
Mozus 13: 10; 2. Mozus 3: 8.) Mozus to nosauca par ” auglīgu zemi,.. zemi ar ūdens strautiem, ūdens kritumiem un avotiem, kas rodas ielejās, bet arī nāk no kalniem,.. zemi, kur ir kvieši un mieži, vīna stādi un vīģu koki un granātābolu koki,.. olīvu koku zemi, kuŗā tek eļļa un medus,.. zemi, kur tu maizi vairs neēdīsi trūkumā, kur tev nekā netrūks,.. zemi, kuŗas akmeņos ir dzelzs un no kuŗas kalniem tu vari izcirst vaŗu ”. ( 5. Mozus 8: 7 — 9.)
