Definition: "Agariciform" is a Greek term used in biblical Hebrew literature, referring to something resembling honey, usually found in the form of honeyed shoots, blossoms, or leaves. It was used metaphorically to describe a person who has a strong and noble character, often depicted as wise, loyal, and generous. In Hebrew Scripture (Exodus 20:5), Aaron's son, Miriam, said she had seen "agariciform honey" which represented her purity of spirit and divine favor. This metaphor is used here to suggest that the person has a noble character that sets them apart from the common people, and thus they are like honeyed shoots (or blossoms) in God's forest of blessings. The term "agariciform honey" refers to someone who possesses both wisdom and kindness or generosity, much as honey can be consumed by bees which then leave their own honey. This metaphor represents a person with the ability to gain favor from God through their actions rather than external influences. It is important to note that the term is used figuratively in this context and does not necessarily mean that someone is inherently noble or pure of heart, but rather that they have qualities that set them apart from other people.
