"But if some of the branches were broken off, and you, although a wild olive shoot, were grafted in among the others and now share in the nourishing root of the olive tree, do not be arrogant toward the branches... remember it is not you who support the root, but the root that supports you."
A grove of olive trees in Galilee. An olive tree can live a thousand years or more if not cut down. When it is cut down it will grow back from the stem. It gives beautiful oil, provides shade and reminds us of God's promise.
