King of Tyrus

Ezek28:12 "Son of man, take up a lamentation upon the king of Tyrus, and say unto him, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Thou sealest up the sum, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty. 13: Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was thy covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created".

This may have been the way Eve saw the serpent, perhaps like many today see him in red pajamas and pitchfork. You think?

The 2 Great Lights on Day Four are seen differently after Jesus declared he was the Light of the World, and that "he and his Father were one", John10:30.

The Tree of Life was in Eden too, but maybe Adam hadn't mentioned it to Eve?? Was the scoundrel waiting to see if she was still alive on Day Two?
Anyhow, the 'trees of righteousness' are in Isa61, and refers to PEOPLE as the Planting of the Lord.

It isn't only beavers which eat trees -- Zacchaeus climbed the sycamore like others climb mountains, and those who don't climb the Tree of Life with its 66 branches are in for a rude awakening someday. This theme from the early chapters of Genesis goes all the way to Revelation.
