Cool, my mother use to tell me stories of such a tree (i think it was an olive tree though) – stories from the bible, talking about the tree of life…
This is actually not what “The Tree of Life” represents in the Bible. In the Bible, the Tree of Life was the tree from which Adam and Eve were told by God that they could eat. The Tree of the Knowledge of Good and evil was the one that represented “becoming like God/or like a god.” Human beings were created in God’s image, but not to be God, so they were told by God not to eat from the “tree of knowledge of good and evil”. But they did, and this caused the whole world to fall under the influence of sin, each of us to be separated from the good life God had for us with the tree of life in the beginning. But we can get back to that tree of life through the cross of Jesus Christ.
