"And each person will sit beneath his vine and beneath his fig tree, with none to make him afraid, for Adonai, the Lord of hosts, has spoken."
Nevi'im (Prophets) Micah 4:4
This verse depicts peace in simple, earthly terms, even though it is the hope for the Messianic era. The design was inspired by the rich colors of batik cloth, with the repeated paisley shape resembling the ripe fig. Each shape is also a portal in which the viewer can see figs ripening on the tree.
