The longest allegory in scripture is that of Zenos’s allegory of the olive tree. Found in the book of Jacob, Zenos explains that the tame olive tree represents the house of Israel. Authors Stephen D. Ricks and John W. Welch enlighten readers to better understanding of this allegory through their research and study.

Readers will better understand the symbolism of the tree, including the decaying, grafting, planting, burning of bitter fruit and gather of the good fruit and how each of these symbols relate to the central figure of the allegory of the olive tree.
