וְהָיָה כְּעֵץ שָׁתוּל עַל-פַּלְגֵי-מָיִם

A tall tree weakens and then comes crashing to the ground - missing a house by only a few feet.

All of the sparks of holiness have been uplifted; in this location, none remain.

The house's owner understands; he too is a tree.

After almost a decade, he must be planted in a new place where he can anchor himself into soil that continually nourishes and strengthens him.
