The Jewish National Fund collected donations to buy land for settlement. Biblical themes were used to create awareness of the connection with the ancient Land of Israel. A Bible quotation describing the seven species growing in the Land was a central motif: "...a land of wheat and barley, of vines and fig trees and pomegranates, a land of olive trees and honey." (Deuteronomy 8)(1940s)
