People also raise bees in hives in order to produce honey to eat or sell, but probably the honey mentioned in the Bible was wild honey. * Three people that the Bible specifically mentions as eating wild honey were Jonathan, Samson, and John the Baptist. * This term is often used figuratively to describe something that is sweet or very pleasurable. For example, God's words and decrees are said to be "sweeter than honey."
