They also symbolize hard work, community, and the power of God to bring good from difficult circumstances.

People Treespeople are correlated with trees to represent their spiritual life, family lineage, and connection to God, with characteristics like roots, fruitfulness, and strength symbolizing their faith, actions, and stability. This comparison highlights the importance of spiritual growth, the consequences of actions ("a tree is known by its fruit"), and God's ability to provide and nurture believers, much like a tree provides shelter and sustains life.
