Jeremiah 17:8
For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit.

Study Note
Jeremiah's arboreal metaphor of the tree planted by water channels, whose roots penetrate the riverbank and remain green through drought and heat, parallels Psalm 1:3 closely enough to suggest shared wisdom-tradition source material or deliberate intertextual resonance. Unlike Psalm 1, which focuses on the blessed person's delight in Torah, Jeremiah 17:8 emphasizes trust in YHWH (v. 7) as the root cause of the tree's resilience — the anthropological claim is that deep trust enables human flourishing under adversity. The contrast with the desert shrub of verse 6 (whose inhabitant trusts in human strength) presents a stark either/or that echoes Deuteronomy's blessing-and-curse structure. The metaphor influenced John 15's vine-and-branches discourse and Paul's olive tree allegory in Romans 11 as vehicles for sustained rootedness theology.
