For the early authors of the Bible coming in from the desert, Lebanon was a paradise of forests and gardens, "of fabulous springs of water, a land flowing with milk and honey."
Olive trees, plantains, orange-trees, vines, apple-trees, fig-trees, almond-trees, cherry-trees, strawberry plants, and great expanses of forests of evergreen oaks, larches, Mediterranean pines, |
and above all giant
cedars celebrated by the poets: "To what shall
I compare your greatness? Surely, to a cedar of
Lebanon with noble branches, thickset needles and
lofty trunk... It was the envy of every tree in
Eden, in the garden of God" (Ezekiel XXXI).
"May I not go across and see this prosperous
land beyond the Jordan, this prosperous country
of hills, and Lebanon?" (Deuteronomy III, 25,
Moses on Mount Nebo); "Come from Lebanon, my
promised bride, come from Lebanon, come on your
way" (Canticle of the Canticles).
