“Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that the plowman shall overtake the reaper, and the treader of grapes him that soweth seed; and the mountains shall drop sweet wine, and all the hills shall melt.”
The image of the plowman overtaking the reaper and the treader of grapes the sower indicates the abundance of the restored land where growth so rapidly follows harvest that the agricultural cycle accelerates. The metaphor suggests unlimited fertility.
