Christ is represented as going down into the garden of nuts. (Song of Song of Solomon 6:11) The word rendered nuts in this passage is never used elsewhere in the Bible. Some suppose it means pruned gardens, from the word pruning. But the great point intended from it is, to denote the grace and condescension in Christ, to visit his churches, and to take notice of the graces he himself hath planted in them.
