I said earlier, right or wrong, that the tree of life is like Christ. God is the tree and the fruit is the tree made accessible for Man by the form of fruit. We eat it like Christ's flesh and blood , and get God in us to manifest Him through us into the physical. Jesus is like the fruit of life hanging on the tree of the cross.
Also the fruit of life is seen in
Revelation 5 as the sealed book in the hand of God. And the high priest, Jesus, entered the holiest of heaven and plucked the book like fruit from the hand of God like he was a tree and gave it to John to eat in
Revelation 10. It's eternal life. The word. Same as Christ being the word and New Adam.
