In ancient mythology, the Apple is one of the most sacred trees and symbolises good health and future happiness. Since ancient times it has also been known as the ‘Tree of Love’ and is associated with Aphrodites, goddess of love.
The apple is one of the most common symbols in dreams, and it has a variety of meanings depending on the color and type of apple you’re dreaming about.
The biblical meaning of apple, for example, is “the fruit of temptation.” This can refer to any situation where you’re tempted to do something that goes against your morals or beliefs—like cheat on your significant other or steal from your boss. This kind of temptation could also be a sign that someone else is trying to tempt you into doing something wrong.
In general, an apple symbolizes fertility—so if there are apples in your dream, it could mean that you’re pregnant or trying to get pregnant. If you eat an apple in your dream, this might mean that there’s something about yourself that needs attention—maybe it’s time for a new career path or some spiritual growth! And if you see green apples in your dream (or red apples), this could be a sign that something exciting is coming up—like an exciting vacation or meeting someone new.
Green Apple Spiritual Meaning
The meaning and symbolism of the apple is a sign of sin because the fruit was used in the story of Adam and Eve. Though there are many other interpretations, Adam and Eve could not eat from the tree of life until they ate from the tree of knowledge. The snake offered them an apple to eat, which would make them wise.
Another interpretation is that the apple symbolizes knowledge, just as in the story of Adam and Eve. Yet another interpretation of an apple is temptation. After all, this fruit was the one offered to Adam and Eve by a snake. The snake was implying that they eat it so that they will know everything, however, God had forbidden them to eat from this fruit.
Is the apple in the Bible a metaphor?
The Bible does not say that the apple is itself a metaphor, but it does mention an apple in the story of Adam and Eve. The Bible uses this story to explain why humans are sinners who die (and often must face temptation).
When someone eats an apple, they take something good (the literal fruit) and make it worse by using it in an unwise way. The author of the story may have intended to teach people that they cannot use something good (like knowledge) in a bad way and expect not to face consequences.
