The Olive Tree is a biblical and universal symbol of peace; it is also used by St. Paul to illustrate the integral link binding the Church to Judaism (Rm 11:17-24). "The Church cannot forget that she draws sustenance from the root of that olive tree onto which she has been grafted." (Nostra Aetate, 4) |
