The Environment Protected
'A land of milk and honey' *
not to be exploited for money
Goats and sheep were banned
from grazing and ruining the land
Bearded Sages, the environment protected
the profit motive summarily rejected
___________________________________
*Numbers 14:8; Deuteronomy 31:20.
The Talmud records the ban on
goats, whose milk Ancient Israel
was 'flowing with.'
