"And they took of the fruit of the land in their hands, and brought it down unto us, and brought us word again, and said, It is a good land which Jehovah our God giveth unto us." — Deuteronomy 1:25 (ASV)

It is a good land. —In Numbers 13:27 they all say, Surely it floweth with milk and honey, and this is the fruit of it. In Numbers 14:7 Joshua and Caleb describe it as an exceeding good land.
