 than much pure gold;
 they are sweeter than honey,
 than honey from the honeycomb.

Revelation 10:10

How sweet are your words to my taste,
 sweeter than honey  to my mouth!

Isaiah 55:10

 come down from heaven,
 and do not return to it
 without watering the earth
 and making it bud and flourish,
 so that it yields seed  for the sower and bread for the eater,
