The Trees · stop 5 of 11
The man as tree
Psalms 1:3
The blessed man is 'like a tree planted' — Jeremiah 17:7-8 carries the same planted-by-water image.
3And he shall be like a tree planted by the streams of water, That bringeth forth its fruit in its season, Whose leaf also doth not wither; And whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.

Witness
The man who delights in God's Word, being taught by it, bringeth forth patience in the time of suffering, faith in the day of trial, and holy joy in the hour of prosperity.
