Butter
Wilson's Dictionary of Bible Types
or Job 20:17 (b) Butter and honey are the products of living animals. The Lord is telling us in this passage that the blessings of the living GOD for and upon the one who daily trusts Him and loves His will will be copious and constant. The living Lord gives His richest blessings to His people who know Him as the living Lord. There are those Christians who live around the Cross and forget that CHRIST is now the living Son of GOD in His human body on the throne of Heaven. Those who have daily fellowship with the Lord JESUS in Heaven are said to be living an milk and honey.
Job 29:6 (b) This is a type of great prosperity and abundant riches in the things of earth. These are had because the living Lord of Heaven commands His daily blessing of His obedient child.
Psalm 55:21 (a) This is a type, because of its slippery and greasy character, of the deceitful and clever statements made by the ungodly in order to mislead the hearer.
Isaiah 7:15 (b) This rich food here represents the abundant blessings which JESUS received from His heavenly Father in great quantity even while a child on earth.
