Revelation 22:2

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

Revelation 22:2. In the midst of the street of it,-

For heaven is a place of sacred intercourse and hallowed communion: "in the midst of the street of it,"-

Revelation 22:2. And on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits,

Every variety of joy and blessedness,

Revelation 22:2. And yielded her fruit every month:

For the felicities of heaven are ever fresh and ever new, we shall never be satiated or wearied with that heavenly fruit.

Revelation 22:2. And the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.

Everything in heaven is the very best of the best. The leaves of the trees in earthly gardens are blown about by the blast, and we take but little note of them; but the leaves of the tree of life are "for the healing of the nations." O happy place, where even the leaves on the tree have such virtue in them!
