What does the Tree of Life represent in the Bible?

Answered in 1 source

The Tree of Life symbolizes eternal life and the grace of God offered to humanity.

In Genesis 2:9, the Tree of Life is presented as a divine provision intended for Adam and Eve, representing the gift of eternal life. This tree is contrasted with the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, the latter embodying the law and the conditions that lead to death. The Tree of Life signifies God's grace, as it was freely given to sustain life. It serves as a reminder of the relationship God desires with His creation, where through grace, humanity can partake in eternal life, ultimately fulfilled in Christ, the source of true life.
