The Shulammite's beloved is an apple tree among the trees who provides shade and refreshing apples. (Song of Solomon 2:3-5)
As the Shulammite's beloved climbs the palm tree and lays hold of its fruit, he wishes for her breasts to be like clusters of the vine and the scent of her breath like apples and her mouth like the best wine. (Song of Solomon 7:8)
The Shulammite remembers the apple tree under which Bathsheba bore Solomon. "Under the apple tree I awakened you. There your mother was in labor with you; there she who bore you was in labor. (Song of Solomon 8:5)
