My Finished Sampler

I added a picture in my RCTNP album of the little sampler I made for my
sister and brother-in-law's 50th Anniversary. It was supposed to be an
apple tree, but since they live in Arizona, I figured oranges were more
appropriate.

Since the Bible DOESN`T say it is an apple , Only "The Fruit of the
tree of the Garden", you can Portay it as Any fruit you like ,,,

Yes, I always wondered how it turned into an apple. I prefer to
imagine some fruit that doesn't exist on Earth.

Alison the trees are described as the Tree of Life Etz HaChayim , and
the tree of Knowing Good and Bad =Etz HaDa`at Tov VeRA....
For generations, It has been accepted as an allegory to sexual
maturity . Maybe that`s what `added` an apple idea ,, but in fact the
it has no name , it is described as a very nice fruit Seductive to the
eye etc.... As to it not being on Earth ,, the Garden is deffinitely
ON EARTH , at least 2 of the rivers mentined are flowing in Iraq ,,,
The Prath & Chidekel
By the way did you know that the Garden is called Gan Eden ,, the
garden of Delight , pleasure . The translation Paradise , is related
to the Hebrew Pardes=Orchard =citrus grove [and it is an allegory to
divine knowledge] It came into Hebrew from Ancient Persian
=Pairi-daeza, and Acadeic = paradisu, Arameic = pardesa Greek recieved
it as paradeisos
and Arabic recieved it as Phirdavs]
I agree with you we are entitled to think the fruit is something
imaginative !!!!
mirjam
a year ago i made a fiberart work showing apples , NOT related to the
garden of delight ,,,,

I seem to remember having heard once that scholars think it may have
been a pomegranate. Why that could be, I don't know!

Probably because pomegranates are native to Israel and appear in a lot of
their art.

Not quite - they are actually quite interesting see here

I guess I should have said they are native to the Middle East and were
mentioned in the bible.

And figure in lots of myths and folklore. I think there is a fertility thing
(as in wishing a woman to be) tied in too.
