5 verses in the King James Version. Word study for “tree” →
She is a tree of life to them that lay hold upon her: and happy is every one that retaineth her.
The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise.
Hope deferred maketh the heart sick: but when the desire cometh, it is a tree of life.
A wholesome tongue is a tree of life: but perverseness therein is a breach in the spirit.
Whoso keepeth the fig tree shall eat the fruit thereof: so he that waiteth on his master shall be honoured.
