Abstract
The seven plant species mentioned in the Bible describes the fertility of the Promised Land. These are: wheat, barley, the grapevine, the fig tree, the pomegranate tree, the olive tree and the date palm. They represent some of the earliest domesticated plants in the Middle East. They could serve as basic food all year round, because their fruits were easy to store. Olive oil, wine and fig fruit were also used for medicinal purposes. Contemporary knowledge confirms the exceptional nutritional value of these seven species, as well as their health-related benefits.
