Bible Dictionary

Bee
(deborah). (1:44; judges 14:8; psalms 118:12; isaiah 7:18) Beesabounded in Palestine, honey being a common article of food(psalms 81:16) and was often found in the clefts of rocks andin hollow trees. (1 samuel 14:25,27) English naturalists knowlittle of the species of bees that are found in Palestine, butare inclined tn believe that the honey-bee of Palestine isdistinct from the honey-bee (apis mellifica) of this country.The passage in (isaiah 7:18) refers "to the custom of thepeople in the East of calling attention to any one by asignificant hiss or rather hist ." We read, (judges 14:8) that"after a time," probably many days, Samson returned to thecarcass of the lion he had slain, and saw bees and honeytherein. "If any one here represents to himself a corrupt andputrid carcass, the occurrence ceases to have any truesimilitude, for it is well known that in these countries, atcertain seasons of the year, the heat will in the course oftwenty-four hours completely dry up the moisture of deadcamels, and that, without their undergoing decomposition theirbodies long remain like mummies, unaltered and entirely freefrom offensive odor."--Edmann .
