And the Lord God planted a garden in Eden, in the east, and there he put the man whom he had formed. And out of the ground the Lord God made to spring up every tree that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. The tree of life was in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. - Genesis 2:8-9
A tree in the midst of the garden in Eden. When Adam and Eve ate of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, God placed the cherubim and a flaming sword that turned every way to guard the way to the tree of life, so that Adam and Eve could not eat of the tree of life. (Genesis 3:22-24)
(Genesis 2:9; 3:22-24)
[Wisdom] is a tree of life to those who lay hold of her; / those who hold her fast are called blessed. - Proverbs 3:18
