Agricultural products listed as special to Israel in the Bible
The Seven Species with associated Biblical verse depicted on a set of Israeli stamps issued in 1958
The Seven Species (Hebrew: שִׁבְעַת הַמִינִים, Shiv'at HaMinim) are seven agricultural products—two grains and five fruits—that are listed in the Hebrew Bible as being special products of the Land of Israel.
The seven species listed are wheat, barley, grape, fig, pomegranates, olive (oil), and date (date honey) (Deuteronomy 8:8).[1][2] Their first fruits were the only acceptable offerings in the Temple.
