∙ 11y agoAlmond. There are many theories as to what sort of fruit the Tree of Life bore. (esp. that of Genesis) If one studies all of the references in Scripture, they will come to the conclusion that it as indeed the Almond.
The Menorah was a symbol of the Tree of Life from the beginning. If one reads the description of the Menorah in the book of Exodus they will discover that the Menorah was decorated with the branches, flowers and fruit of the almond.
When Aaron's staff budded, took root and grew into a fully formed tree (also in Exodus) it also grew into an almond tree.
Later Jeremiah the prophet is shown a vision of an almond tree that the Lord tells him stands for His activity in bringing about his purposes in the world. God's purpose in Scripture (since the Fall) has been to bring Mankind back to a state of Everlasting Life (or immortality of the soul). If this is His purpose, it also fits that this purpose will be symbolised by the almond.
The Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil was probably a Pomegranate. In Scripture it can be seen that the Almond and the Pomegranate where the only plants specifically stated to decorate the Tabernacle or the Temple. The Almond Tree was used in the form of the Menorah (Tree of Life) and golden Pomegranates were strung on chains both on both the interior and exterior of the Temple. The Pomegranate also decorated the Priests garments and archaeologists have recently turned up small ivory pomegranates thought to have decorated the tops of the priests staves.
The interior of the Pomegranate is also of note. The juice filled bubbles surrounding the seeds are perfectly edible and delicious (the Good) while the white matrix is bitter and indigestable (the Evil). Thus even the makeup of the fruit itself is a symbolism.
