Commentary
Milk used to be considered a health food of almost medicinal qualities. Do you want to grow up to be big and strong? Drink your milk. You can’t sleep? Have some warm milk. Do you want to keep your bones strong? Pour yourself a glass of milk. Milk is even referenced 28 times in the Bible, including numerous references to the abundantly prosperous promised land as a place of “milk and honey,” both of which represent nourishment, sustenance, and health.
