Fruit is the part of a plant that has seeds in it. It can be eaten. Something that is "fruitful" has much fruit. The word “fruit” is also a metaphor in the Bible.
|
||||
* The things a person does is called “fruit.” In the same way a tree’s kind is known because of the fruit that is on the tree, you can know what a person is like because of the things that person does (see: Matthew 3:10; 7:16).

*
|
||||
* A person can have good or bad spiritual fruit. However, the word "fruitful" is only used to talk about good fruit (see: John 15:4; Philippians 1:22).
|
||||
* The word "fruitful" is also used to talk about something or someone being prosperous. This means having many children and descendants and having much food and other wealth (see: Genesis 1:22).
|
||||
* The word “fruit of” means anything that is made by something else. For example, the "fruit of wisdom" means the good things that come from being wise (see: Proverbs 10:31).
