TREES & FRUIT | ||||
S64 | Matt 7 | Mark | S61 | Luke 6 |
17* | "So every sound tree bears good fruit | |||
but the <rotten> tree bears evil fruit. | ||||
18 | A sound tree cannot bear evil fruit, | 43* | "For no good tree bears <rotten> fruit, | |
nor can a <rotten> tree bear good fruit." | nor again does a <rotten> tree bear good fruit." |
* Note: in Luke this saying precedes the botanical principle
of identifying trees by their fruit;
in Matthew these verses follow that aphorism.
