Kerryn,

Good reasoning. Your are right in that the tree of life must have had seeds because God only gave the trees for food that had seeds (their life in them so to speak) and the only tree that was forbidden was the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. It certainly makes sense that if this tree had no life in it (no seeds) it was not meant to reproduce. I had seen that the tree of life was on both sides of the river and this does give us an indication that it is a “kind” of tree not just one solitary tree. If it had seeds apparently it was meant to reproduce. I like to take the bible literally unless it is clear that the literal meaning does not make sense in the context.

Great thoughts, Kerryn as usual!
