Do you comprehend comparison between the parable of the Two Trees in the Garden of Eden and the Fruit that men bear?
I would like to point out the comparison between the fruit trees of the creation, and how they bear little fruit when they are immature, and of how as they mature and are pruned to produce [ah the pain of spiritual growth, and its wondrous efficacy] more and better fruit, this process is to be compared with the parable of the Two Trees in the Garden, and of how they demonstrate, how some men bear little and immature fruit in their youth, but when pruned produce healthy and delicious fruit [wisdom], and others bear rotten and worthless fruit, even though they are pruned and watered.
It is incredible that the types and likenesses that Abba YaHUaH (YHUH) placed in the creation and man, were used of Ha Mashiach [The Messiah] as the basis of His comparison analysis, or parables, to Authenticate the Authority of His Word, Ministry, and Being!
Who else but Elohim could produce and demonstrate such wondrous knowledge before His Creation..
Please keep in mind how the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, and the Tree of Life, both demonstrate, the differences between good and delicious fruit, and fruit that is unedible.
Who wants to eat a rotten apple?
"Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.
Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity." [Mattityahu/Matthew 7:16-23]
Some men are designed to demonstrate ROTTEN FRUIT THAT WILL ACTUALLY MAKE YOU ILL, IF YOU GET NEAR IT, and others are designed to demonstrate DELICIOUS HEALTH-GIVING FRUIT.
Are you a piece of fruit that is life giving, or rotten and worthless?

I'm confuzzled. I'm not sure that Genesis 3 is of the parable type (someone had to say it), or even if it is, that you're not mixing metaphors. Whence cometh Man's evil in the garden of Eden, but by that which comes out of him (Mark 7)?
All the same, I would not judge a man's worth by his fruit. In Matthew 7:16-20, prophets are not as fruit, but trees. And Jesus died for just the sort who could not help but bring forth evil. God's purposes <i>for us</i> were yet worth that, even as we stood as his enemies. None stand worthless.
Thanks for the exhortation to live that out, natzarim!
