  5. OLIVES REGENERATE EASILY

  6. PROPAGATION • The olive is propagated in various ways, but cuttings or layers are generally preferred; • the tree roots easily in favourable soil and throws up suckers from the stump when cut down. • However, yields from trees grown from suckers or seeds are poor; • it must be budded or grafted on to other specimens to do well (Lovington A. & Parker E., Ancient Trees, 1999 p.114)

  13. PLANTING PRUNINGS • Branches of various thickness are cut into lengths of about 1 meter and when planted deeply in manured ground, soon vegetate;

  14. ZENOS HAD IT RIGHT!! • Pruning preserves the flower-bearing shoots of the preceding year, while keeping the tree low enough to allow the easy gathering of the fruit. • The spaces between the trees are regularly fertilized. • The crop from old trees is sometimes enormous, but they seldom bear well two years in succession

  17. DIG, PRUNE, & NOURISH The master’s response to his corrupted vineyard tells us about the Lord’s feelings for His people? Jacob 5:41, 47 • Jacob 5:4 “I will prune it, and dig about it, and nourish it, that … it perish not” • Jacob 5:7 “It grieveth me that I should lose this tree” • Jacob 5:33 “What shall we do unto the tree, that I may preserve again good fruit thereof unto mine own self?” • Jacob 5:60 “I may have joy again in the fruit of my vineyard”

  18. THE LAST DAYS (US) • What did the master decide to do to save his corrupted vineyard? Jacob 5:49–54, 58, 62–64. • He decided to nourish and prune the vineyard once more and graft some of the transplanted branches back into the original tree. What does this final nourishing, pruning, and grafting represent?
