Please delete these notes before printing Olive Trees, Olives and Olive Oil ‘ Then God said, “Let the land produce trees that bear fruit with seed in it.”And it was so. The land produced trees bearing fruit with seed in it according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good.’ (Genesis 1:11-12) Among those trees bearing fruit was certainly the olive. The first reference to the tree comes in the story of Noah’s ark. As the flood waters gradually go down, Noah sends out first of all a raven, to see if it is safe for the animals to leave the ark. But there is nowhere for the raven to land, so it keeps flying to and fro until the earth dries up. Then Noah sends out a dove, but the dove still finds nowhere to land and returns to Noah in the ark. Finally, he sends out the dove again, and this time the dove comes back with a fresh olive leaf in its beak. This shows that the earth is drying up. Soon God tells Noah and his family and all the animals to leave the ark. God also promises there will never again be such a huge flood over all the earth, so that the people can live in peace. (Genesis 6 to 8) Since the time of Noah, an olive branch counts as a sign of peace. That is why it is the symbol of the United Nations, the organisation that tries to keep the peace throughout the world. But the olive tree is much more than a symbol. It provides fruit for people to eat, and from the fruit people can also make oil. This oil they can use for cooking, or in lamps to give light in their homes. Perhaps you remember the parable of the bridesmaids which Jesus told. The wise bridesmaids had plenty of oil for their lamps. The foolish bridesmaids ran out of oil and missed the wedding feast. (Matthew 25) Another use for the oil is as a lotion to make the skin and hair smo
