'Farming' in the Bible
He also built watchtowers in the wilderness and had many cisterns hewed out, since he also possessed large herds, both in the Shephelah and in the midland plains. He had many farmers and vinedressers throughout the hills and fertile lands because he loved farming.
As for the farming settlements with their fields:Some of Judah’s descendants lived in Kiriath-arba and its villages,Dibon and its villages, and Jekabzeel and its villages;
But as for that nation which puts its neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon and becomes his servant, I will let that nation keep on in its land, farming it and living in it, says the Lord.
For we are God's fellow workers. You are God's farming, God's building.
