description: (hide) Bill Cherry explores the simile of the tree as a symbol of a righteous man. In addition to serving as a source of food, the tree also provides shelter, furniture, and lifesaving shade. The righteous man, like the tree, flourishes when tapped into an abundant source of water—metaphorically identified with God’s Holy Spirit and His Holy Word. Our roots must be planted in living water.
