It helps make what I am reading "real" (sorry, I can't think of a better word) for me. I'm glad you shared your research.

Not surprising that our Lord, the Master Carpenter (Mark 6:3), created and chose this wood for the construction of the items of the tabernacle.<br /><br />Another fun tidbit - which might be why God compares the righteous to palm trees. As in Psalm 92:12 The righteous man will flourish like the palm tree... (13) Planted in the house of the LORD, They will flourish in the courts of our God. (14) They will still yield fruit in old age; They shall be full of sap and very green. (NASB)<br /><br />Unlike deciduous trees where the sap (xylem and phloem) is on the outer surface of the trunk just under the bark, in a palm tree, the entire trunk is flowing with sap. Or so I learned from watching an arborist on television discuss palm trees. ;)<br /><br />-CarolynAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2736720231951988221.post-74363557198283919422017-01-11T19:32:10.010-05:002017-01-11T19:32:10.010-05:00Thanks for sharing!
