"Tree and shrub in our bibilical heritage opens up the living world of the bible and talmud to nature lovers who hike the outdoors, and opens up Israel's nature to sedentary readers. The author provokes us to question and wonder at the weighty significance of something as common as a tree. Why did Abraham choose the tamarisk to plant in Beersheba rather than any other tree? Which tree is the symbol of regeneration? What was the miracle of the burning bush? Which plant served Sampson to fool Delilah and the Philistines? What gimmick was used by King Solomon to amaze visitors in the 'House of the Forest of Lebanon'? Which tree is the symbol of pride, which the symbol of humility. Nogah Hareuveni, founder of Neot Kedumim --The biblical Landscape Reserve in Israel, shows that biblical and Talmudic literature is wondrously woven of natural fibers, richly seeded with terms and concepts integral to the nature and agriculture of the land of Israel. This special edition of Tree and Shrub in Our Biblical Heritage celebrates the 100th anniversary of Keren Kaymeth LeIsrael-JNF..." -- BACK COVER.
