Flipping through a homeschool catalog once upon a time, I saw a CD by the singers "Sweet Honey from the Rock." I assumed the group's name came from the last verse of Psalm 81. (Wiki confirms this. For whatever that's worth.)
But the honey in the psalm isn't just about the stuff bees make. And it's certainly not about richness and beauty coming from an unexpected location. We read throughout Scripture* how the Rock-which-was-Christ provided for both physical and eternal needs. We read how God's Word is eaten and tastes sweet. Really, God?! EAT a scroll? And yet, Ezekiel and John both said it was true: the scroll was sweeter than honey.
* Ex 16, Deut 32:13
Ps 19:10, Ps 119:103
Ezek 3:3, Rev 10:9
