I had read this chapter and because of the project, I was thinking about how to portray it visually for a quiet book page when I noticed that all the trees and bramble in this parable had purple fruit or flowers (olives, figs, grapes and thistles)&#8230; and of course purple is the colour of royalty in the Bible.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>When Tahlia was a baby I wasn&#8217;t earning a lot of money, and didn&#8217;t have much to go buy supplies with. I had found an incomplete felt story set of the Frog Prince in an op shop and acquired it quite cheaply. That is where the crown came from. However, I was particularly perplexed about how to do a bramble &#8211; but, I really wanted to do the project. So I was praying about it regularly, and one day as I was pushing the pram along the side of the road, I saw a few plastic thistle leaves detached from some kind of artificial flower littering the roadside. I knew it was the answer to my prayer.<\/p>\n<div dir=\"ltr\" trbidi=\"on\">If you want to know about the plant that has been proposed to be the actual plant mentioned in the Hebrew (Atad), then watch this YouTube video: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=ojXAYKkUfJQ&amp;ab_channel=FigTreeMinistries\">The Parable of the Trees &#8211; Judges 9<\/a> by Fig Tree Ministries. It has very scare orange\/red\/brown fruit, that doesn&#8217;t taste very good and is not used to sustain people. It is only good for shade &#8211; if that, because it has shallow roots which use up all the water and does not leave enough for other fruit trees to thrive. It must be removed by fruit farmers, and is then only good for fire wood.\u00a0<\/div>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Parable of Trees\" width=\"840\" height=\"630\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/xHboeZrNVg8?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>I think the lesson to be learned for this story is &#8211; don&#8217;t be a prick, and don&#8217;t make a prick the king.
