Been looking at some Scripture with Lebanon in them, and i thought the country was very special to the Lord in many ways. The cedars of Lebanon were esp mentioned several times in the OT, and there was that passage on the smell of Lebanon-- got to find the verse again however.
As in other OP i start, i cannot always come back or reply soon or more often, but if anyone wants a share on the OP, u are welcome.
 

  • [h=2]Song of Solomon 4:11[/h][h=3]King James Version (KJV)[/h]Thy lips, O my spouse, drop as the honeycomb: honey and milk are under thy tongue; and the smell of thy garments is like the smell of Lebanon.
Promise of God's Blessing
Hos. 14.6

…5I will be like the dew to Israel; He will blossom like the lily, And he will take root like the cedars of Lebanon. 6His shootswill sprout, And his beauty will be like the olive tree And his fragrance like the cedars of Lebanon. 7Those who live in his shadow Will again raise grain, And they will blossom like the vine. His renown will be like the wine of Lebanon.…
 
In my search for verses, i also came across this... you may wish to read.

THE SMELL OF CHANGE IN LEBANON

by Emmanuel Haddad
Surprise. Tuesday 1 September, at 1 pm, 45 “You Stink” activists infiltrate the Environment Ministry to press Mohammed Machnouk to resign. Taken by surprise, the Environment Minister holed himself up in his office then called the anti-riot police to evacuate the protesters by force.
Surprise. This was term used by “You Stink” members three days earlier, in front of tens of thousands of protesters who had responded to their call to join them on Martyrs Square in Beirut.

(Greg Demarque)Bolstered by popular support without precedent in the national history of a nonpartisan social movement, they promised a surprise for the provisional government headed by Prime Minister Tammam Salam if it refused to respond to at least one of their grievances.
Their demands include the calling of legislative elections, to renew a parliament composed of members that have extended their term in office on two occasions without going to the polls.
