Does anyone know if the bible equates Christ with the tree of life? And if so, where?
 
yes.

in the book of Revelation, for one place, although I don’t recall the verse.

As Pope Benedict says in his first volume of Jesus of Nazareth Christ is the focus of all scripture.

So, the tree of life in the garden of Eden, the burning bush on Mt. Sinai, etc. are all pointing to Christ.
 
Thanks. I found this in Revalations;

Rev 22:14 “Blessed are those who will have washed their robes clean, so that they will have the right to feed on the tree of life and can come through the gates into the city.”

and

Rev 2:7 “Let anyone who can hear, listen to what the Spirit is saying to the churches: those who prove victorious I will feed from the tree of life set in God’s paradise.”

Since we can “feed on the tree of life” and “feed from the tree of life” and Christ gives us His flesh to eat, then this incidates that Christ is the tree of life?
