Numbers 13:21-25

21So they went up and explored the land from the Desert of Zin as far as Rehob, toward Lebo Hamath.

22They went up through the Negev and came to Hebron, where Ahiman, Sheshai and Talmai, the descendants of Anak, lived. (Hebron had been built seven years before Zoan in Egypt.)

23When they reached the Valley of Eshkol, they cut off a branch bearing a single cluster of grapes. Two of them carried it on a pole between them, along with some pomegranates and figs.

24That place was called the Valley of Eshkol because of the cluster of grapes the Israelites cut off there.

25At the end of forty days they returned from exploring the land.
