Drought
Easton's Bible Dictionary
From the middle of May to about the middle of August the land of Palestine is dry. It is then the "drought of summer" (Genesis 31:40; Psalm 32:4 ), and the land suffers (Deuteronomy 28:23 : Psalm 102:4 ), vegetation being preserved only by the dews (Haggai 1:11 ). (See DEW .) Copyright Statement
