We see it again: many nations, but only one kind of tree, fed by the water of the Spirit, who proceeds from the Father and the Son (Lamb). The biblical symbol of international unity is twofold: the water of life and the tree of life. The water symbolizes the life-giving work of the Spirit, poured out on Pentecost. The tree symbolizes the healing and feeding/nurturing work of the Bride, the Church.
