In these days I have declared the way to be open, says the Lord. 

Then the Lord God said, “Behold, the man has become like one of us in knowing good and evil. Now, lest he reach out his hand and take also of the tree of life 
and eat, and live forever—” therefore the Lord God sent him out from the garden of Eden to work the ground from which he was taken. He drove out the man, and at 
the east of the garden of Eden he placed the cherubim and a flaming sword that turned every way to guard the way to the tree of life. 
Gen 3:22-24 


The way was closed, but now it is open. 


Blessed are those who wash their robes, so that they may have the right to the tree of life and that they may enter the city by the gates. 
Rev 22:14 


I have declared the way open, says the Lord, come, enter in and partake of the tree of life. 


"In her right hand Wisdom holds a long life, and in her left hand are wealth and honour. Wisdom makes life pleasant and leads us safely along. Wisdom is a life- 
giving tree, the source of happiness for all who hold on to her." 
Proverbs 3:16-18
