There is somewhat sacred in the mulberry-tree, and holy Scripture seems to have pointed this out very strikingly, when directing the movement of the Lord's army to be, when the people heard the sound of a going in the mulberry-trees; for thereby they should know that the Lord went out before them. (2 Samuel 5:24.) The Psalmist speaks of the church passing through the valley of Baca (that is the mulberry-trees), meaning soul exercises with the sweet fruit of divine love. For when the Lord calls to trial, he gives to his people a grace suited to support. (Psalms 84:4-6.)
