נֹפֶת in Scripture

Psalms 19:10 More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold: sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb. Proverbs 5:3 For the lips of a strange woman drop as an honeycomb, and her mouth is smoother than oil: Proverbs 24:13 My son, eat thou honey, because it is good; and the honeycomb, which is sweet to thy taste: Proverbs 27:7 The full soul loatheth an honeycomb; but to the hungry soul every bitter thing is sweet. Song of Solomon 4:11 Thy lips, O my spouse, drop as the honeycomb: honey and milk are under thy tongue; and the smell of thy garments is like the smell of Lebanon.
