Buy with confidence from a seller who takes the time to show you the details and not use just stock photos. Please check out all my pictures and email with any questions! Thanks for looking! This book also comes with a 16 page Pamphlet called, 'The Bible Garden' published by the North Congregational Church of the Beatitudes in Phoenix, Arizona. It states that the plantings in the Bible Garden in the patio of the Church School Building are all flowers or plants that grow in Palestine. This shows the similarity of climate between the State of Arizona and the Holy Land. The Inside pamphlet shows illustrations and descriptions of several plants taken from the book. About the Book:This book is an in-depth exploration of the flora mentioned throughout the Bible. Walker, a botanist, meticulously examines the various plants, trees, flowers, and herbs referenced in biblical texts, providing both scientific and historical insights into their significance. The book includes detailed descriptions of each plant, along with illustrations, to help readers better understand the natural world that shaped the lives of the people in ancient times. Walker also connects the symbolism and practical uses of these plants in biblical narratives, from the olive tree's importance in both economy and religious rites, to the use of hyssop in purification rituals. The text reflects on how plants played a vital role in everyday life, serving medicinal, culinary, and spiritual purposes. By blending scientific knowledge with scriptural context, Walker sheds light on the broader cultural and religious meanings of these plants, enriching readers’ understanding of the Bible’s natural world. *All the Plants of the Bible* serves as both a botanical guide and a companion for those interested in the intersection of nature and faith in ancient scripture.

I spend lots of time writing up my descriptions and despise it when un-original losers cut and paste my descriptions in as their own.
