What Is The Meaning Of The Tree Of Life? by FOLYKAZE(m): 7:41am On Sep 29, 2013
Took a glance through the bible this morning, I was stucked exactly at Genesis 2:9, i read little further to Genesis 3:22-24 where 'tree of life was mention. The first bible verse stated that God planted the tree alongside tree of knowledge while the second verse state that God removed the tree for man to search for it.

What exactly is this tree? Where is the tree at present? Is it literal or symbolic?

The scripture was not written to be read literarily or else you wont understand it. Pray to the author(Holyspirit) sincerely and he would reveal it to you.

Your post said God removed the tree. You said you found that in Gen 3:22-24. This is what the verse reads,
23 Therefore the LORD God sent him forth from the
garden of Eden, to till the
ground from whence he was
taken. 24 So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of
the garden of Eden Cherubims,
and a flaming sword which
turned every way, to keep
the way of the tree of life.

So where is it written that "God removed
the tree for man to search for
it"?

Genesis 3:22-24
New International Version (NIV)
22 And the Lord God said, “The man has now become like one of us, knowing good and evil. He must not be allowed to reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life and eat, and live forever.” 23 So the Lord God banished him from the Garden of Eden to work the ground from which he had been taken. 24 After he drove the man out, he placed on the east side[a] of the Garden of Eden cherubim and a flaming sword flashing back and forth to guard the way to the tree of life.

This is why I am always baffled by those that can make sense of these things.
Why not have the cherubim and the flaming sword there in the first place?
What did they mean by tree of life or tree of knowledge?
