A tree to healHave you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from? Just three chapters into the story of the Bible, we learn how a different bad choice and a tree marred God’s good creation. Another tree would play a role in undoing this curse — the cross Jesus endured on our behalf. There we read of “the tree of life” growing beside the “river of the water of life” (Revelation 22:1–2). As John describes it, this tree will be “for the healing of the nations” (v. 2).
