TREES IN THE BIBLE.
"And God said , Behold , I have given
you every herb bearing seed , which is
upon the face of all the earth , and every
tree , in the which is the fruit of a free

meat. " Gen. 1st , 29th.

good and evil. " Gen. 2-9.

the tree , whereof I commanded thee
that thou shouldest not eat ? " Gen. 8 :

The Result.
"And unto Adam ho said , Because
thou hast hearkened unto the voice of
thy wife , and hast eaten of the tree of
which I commanded thee , saying , Thou
shalt not eat of it ; cursed is the ground
for thy sake ; in sorrow shalt thou eat of
it all the days of thy lifo.
"And the Lord God said , Behold the
man is become as one of us , to know
good and evil. And now , lest he put
forth his hand , and take also of the tree
of lifo , and eat and live forever.
"So ho drove out the man ; and he
placed at the east of the garden of Eden ,
Oherubims , and a flaming sword which
turned every way , to keep the way of
the tree of life. " Gen. 8 : 12-17-22-24.

land , and shall have planted all manner

you ; it shall not be eaten of. ' ' Leviticus
