Jesus announces the arrival of God's kingdom

Jesus comes on the scene and announces the arrival of God's kingdom. He uses garden imagery to describe the kingdom, comparing it to a new Eden where God is growing a garden and the people are the plants. Jesus sees himself as the central plant, the tree of life, from which the new creation grows. He invites people to be planted in this garden and bear fruit, and he calls his followers the branches of the vine. Jesus is the fulfillment of the hope for a new Eden and the tree of life.
