Deuteronomy 32:14
Butter of kine, and milk of sheep, with fat of lambs, and rams of the breed of Bashan, and goats, with the fat of kidneys of wheat; and thou didst drink the pure blood of the grape. (Deuteronomy 32:14)
Blood of the grape.
 Compare Gen. 49:11.
Kidneys of wheat.
Or, “kernels of wheat,” denoting an unusually fine crop.
Bashan.
 Famous for its pastures (see Num. 32:1-5).
Fat of lambs.
Perhaps better, “fat of rams,” inasmuch as the noun here is masculine.
Milk of sheep.
Better, “milk of the flock,” referring more particularly to the milk of goats. The word translated “sheep” is the usual one for a flock of either sheep or goats.
Butter.
 Better, “curdled milk,” not the modern butter. This was a symbol of abundance (see Job 20:17; cf. Gen. 18:8; Judges 5:25; 2 Sam. 17:29).
