The book of Proverbs tells us that wisdom is honey for the soul. TA common theme throughout the Old Testament Prophets connects the speaking of God's Word to the consuption of God's Word as one consumes honey. Wisdom, God's wisdom, is like honey for the soul. As honey nourishes the body, God's wisdom nourishes the soul. In order to benefit from the honey, one must first digest the honey. Digesting God's word into our souls results in speech which is rich and fourishing for God's glory. "Oh taste and see that the Lord is good." Ps. 34:8
