[Avodah] Flowing with Milk and Honey

[Micha Berger]

According to Y-mi Bikkurim 6a, "eretz zavas chalav udevash" means that EY
has flowing milk and honey -- "asher bah", but not that the whole EY does.

    R' Yonah, R' Ze'ira besheim R' Chanina:
    16 mil chizur chizur leTzipppurin
    hein hein "eretz zavas chalav udevash".

So, it's just the Galil and the Golan. The flourishing of Gush Qatif's
crops wasn't actually part of that berakhah.

Tir'u baTov!
