Revelation 22:1-2

And Proceeding with his description of the heavenly city, the apostle observes, he That is, the angel who condescended to be his guide on this occasion; showed me a pure river of the water of life The ever fresh and fructifying influence of the Holy Spirit; see Ezekiel 47:1, where also the trees are mentioned which bear fruit every month, that is, perpetually. Proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb All things that the Father hath, saith the Son of God, are mine; even the throne of his glory. In the midst of the street of it Here is the paradise of God, mentioned chap. Revelation 2:7; and on either side of the river was the tree of life As this river ran through the chief street in the midst of the city, so there were planted on each side of it beautiful trees, not only to serve for ornament and refreshment, but which, like the tree of life in paradise, should make the inhabitants immortal; which bare twelve manner of fruits Which produced a great variety of pleasant fruits, and in such plenty, that ripe fruit was yielded every month So that all might freely partake of them at all seasons. And the leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nations That is, for the preserving, not the restoring, of spiritual health; for no sickness or infirmity, of mind or body, is, or can be there: beneath the salutary shade of these trees no disease can ever invade any individual of the nations of the saved, but perpetual health shall exist and flourish in them all.
