Bible Note: Shalom Tim, Actually there are hundreds of scriptures that support the tree of life teaching. Another example is the tree of life itself in the garden, most assume that this is just a tree with fruit, but we also find this tree in Prov 3:18 calls wisdom the tree of life. Wisdom is one of the sephirot of the tree of life in Kabbalah. Rev 22:1 says that the tree of life is the river of life that comes out of the throne, another one of the sephirot. Proverbs 11:30 says that the tree of life is righteousness, another one of the sephirot. Shalom Simchat Torah |
