or if the pomegranates were in bloom.

the one who taught me.
I would give you spiced wine to drink,

John 15:4-8
15:4 Remain
in me, and I will remain in you.
Just as the branch cannot bear fruit by itself,
unless it remains
in
the vine, so neither can you unless you remain
in me.
15:5 “I am the vine; you are the branches. The one who remains in me – and I in him – bears much fruit, because apart from me you can accomplish nothing.
15:6 If anyone does not remain in me, he is thrown out like a branch, and dries up; and such branches are gathered up and thrown into the fire, and are burned up.
15:7 If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you want, and it will be done for you.
15:8 My Father is honored by this, that you bear much fruit and show that you are my disciples.
John 15:16
15:16 You did not choose me, but I chose you
and appointed you to go and bear
fruit, fruit that remains,
so that whatever you ask the Father in my name he will give you.

is bearing fruit and growing, so it has also been bearing fruit and growing
among you from the first day you heard it and understood the grace of God in truth.
