TSNTyndale Study Notes:

22:2 Although humans were denied access to the tree of life after they sinned (see Gen 3:22-24), it is now freely available. The tree on each side of the river (cp. Ezek 47:12) shows that there is no wrong side of the river in heaven. The tree produces a fresh crop of fruit each month, demonstrating God’s constant provision.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἐν μέσῳ τῆς πλατείας αὐτῆς καὶ

in /the/_middle ˱of˲_the road ˱of˲_it and

This phrase could refer implicitly to: (1) where the river flowed. That is the interpretation that ULT and UST follow. (2) where the tree of life was. In that case this would be the beginning of a new sentence. Alternate translation: “In the middle of its public square and”
