'Adam, made of the ground, would by implication bring forth new trees, and thus trees and plants are among the symbols for human beings throughout the Bible. The woman taken from AdamâÇÖs side was the first such tree. She would have a âÇÖseed,âÇÖ language taken from the trees and plants of Gen. 1:11-12. Her womb would yield âÇÖfruitâÇÖ (Gen. 30:2). Like the soil on the original third day, the Adamic soil brought forth a plant seeding seed and trees that had fruit with seed in her.'- FromáTrees and Thorns: Studies in the First Four Chapters of GenesisPresented for the first time in one volume,áTrees and Thorns: Studies in the First Four Chapters of Genesisácompiles studies from James B.
