Growing in the Word
The color green, as seen above, suggests growth. Psalm 1 has the phrase "its leaf does not wither" (v. 3). It is suggested that this leaf is from an evergreen fruit bearing plant.
That is so because the person mentioned in the psalm meditates on the law (Scripture) day and night (v. 2). The "day and night" aspect suggests a thorough knowledge of Scripture that we take wherever we go in our waking hours.
