Indeed, olive trees are of great significance in both Israel and the Bible. Deuteronomy 8:8 says of the Promised Land that it is “a land of wheat, barley, vines, figs, and pomegranates; a land of olive oil and honey.” This verse holds true to this day; olive trees stand as ancient reminders of God’s promise to the Israelites and as boons for the people of modern-day with bountiful olives. This is made all the more meaningful considering that in the context of scripture, olive trees largely represent the blessings of God, with one particularly striking example being the dove who returned to Noah with an olive branch in its beak once the floodwaters began to recede. God provides for his children, and those in the Israel of present-day are reminded of this by the blessings of the olive harvest.

With that in mind, Ecclesiastes 3:1-2 makes clear that “There is an occasion for everything, and a time for every activity under heaven: a time to give birth and a time to die; a time to plant and a time to uproot.” The olive trees of Israel are a consistent blessing of a bountiful harvest, but eventually, new ones must be planted, and old ones must fall. However, even the fallen trees continue to provide blessing through the olive wood that they provide.

Olive wood is a unique wood. It is quite hard, especially as it compares to other woods. As such, it is a prime choice for wood carving. Its firmness lends it to be used in a variety of ways, many of which can be seen on our website: olive wood cross necklaces, olive wood holding crosses, olive wood mezuzahs, olive wood bracelets, olive wood figures, wall décor - the only limit is the God-given imagination of the carver! Olive wood is excellent for carving even the finest of details, details that can only be achieved by this firm, hardy wood. Further, because of the natural patterns in the wood itself, every single carving is completely unique even if carved by the same set of hands in the exact same way. Please, feel free to have a look for yourself by browsing our olive wood products! We have olive wood nativity ornaments, which have been quite popular lately, as well as a huge variety of Bethlehem olive wood carvings.

Now, having gone over a bit of the background on both the significance and versatility of olive wood, it should come as no surprise that many believers in Bethlehem have taken to the art form of carving it. Olive trees are an expression of Christian faith, and their wood is no exception. Indeed, often it is carved in such a way to commemorate such notable things as the cross of Christ the Savior or the scene of His birth in a manger that fateful night in Bethlehem. For these artisans, their faith overlaps with their craft in a holistic and deeply meaningful way. That depth of steadfast faith is imbued into every piece, and that is something you have the opportunity to have with you and be encouraged by each day.

Still, as I have said, it is not just for the sake of your faith that we at Logos Trading Post encourage you to buy some of our olive wood products, but it is for the sake of the persecuted believers in Bethlehem. By purchasing these products, you are supporting their livelihood in a very direct way and you are paving the way for the gospel to spread in the Middle East.

Our great commission as disciples of Christ is given in Matthew 28:19-20, which reads, “Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe everything I have commanded you...” Though it may seem at a glance that our opportunities to live this out day-to-day are few and far between, it is the truth that there are numerous, small, practical ways that this commission can be fulfilled. You may very well not be in a position to be the hands and feet that move the gospel in the Middle East, but you can support those hands and feet by supporting the believers who are already there - believers who call it their home. After all, it is just as it is written in Romans 10:15, “How can they preach unless they are sent?” Though you may not be setting foot in Israel and the Middle East to spread the gospel any time soon, you have the opportunity to do a great thing by sending those who can.

Please, consider purchasing any of our olive wood products; we have a wide variety of high-quality pieces. By doing so, you not only receive a beautiful reminder of your faith, but you also support the mission of God by providing for believers in Bethlehem, creating opportunities for the gospel to spread, and for the Kingdom of God to come on Earth.

How Holy Land Olive Wood Items are made?

The olive tree is native to the Holy Land where it has been cultivated since ancient times. The Bible contains many references to the culinary and religious uses of olive oil.  Olive oil was the main oil used to anoint kings and priests.

 I will be like the dew to Israel...His shoots will sprout and his beauty will be like the olive tree.  Hosea 14:5,6

Jesus prayed under the olive trees in the Garden of Gethsemane prior of his trial and crucifixion. It is even possible the wood, which was used to crucify Jesus, was made out of Olive Wood. 

Olive woodcarving is an ancient tradition in Palestine that continues to the present day.

Olive wood has an amazing natural grain. Items made out of olive wood still smells like olive oil. Making olive woodcarving involves skillful chiseling of the olive wood is very common in Bethlehem among local Christian artisans. The processes are very labor-intensive and consist of many steps. Often involving more than one craftsman. Cutting and drilling tools are used to create a rough outline of the intended olive wood home décor item.  Next, the wood is passed into skilled artisans who transform the rough outline into a finished shape. Finally, the item must be sanded down and then polished and coated with protective oil. To give the object a natural shine and ensure its long usage life.

The wood which is used to create our Olivewood ornaments, statues, necklaces, magnets, nativities, bracelets, rosaries mezuzah, crosses, and many more are from pruning of the olive tree, which is an essential process for healthier growth of the tress and generate sustainable environment. Visit our Holy Land Olive Wood category to view our selections. 

The olive tree's wood has a diverse variety of natural color and tone depth and an artistically smooth and elegant grain rendering it one of the most beautiful in the world.  Our olive woodcarvings will easily last a lifetime and be enjoyed by generations to come.
