Spiritual Vitality Defies Aging
Commentators unanimously agree that this verse promises a spiritual vitality that defies natural aging. While other trees stop bearing fruit when old, the righteous can remain spiritually vigorous, or "full of sap and green." Scholars like John Gill note that grace is often strongest when physical nature is weakest, making a believer's last days potentially their most fruitful.
