The answer is: Those that do God's commandments

Rev 22 vs 14

In Revelation 22:14, the tree of life is not just a culinary delight but a symbol of eternal reward and divine blessing. What's fascinating here is how the imagery of the tree of life threads back through biblical history, offering rich layers of meaning and connection.

Let's take a quick shortcut back to Genesis! In Eden, the tree of life represented direct communion with God, a source of immortality and divine wisdom. When humanity chose to stray from divine guidance, access to this sacred gift was blocked. Fast forward to Revelation, and our access to that tree reignites for those who do God's commandments. This doesn’t mean a rigid checklist of dos and don’ts but rather a living commitment to love, justice, and community.

In many ways, God's commandments in the context of Revelation can echo the core ethical teachings found throughout the Bible, emphasizing love toward God and neighbor. This continuity adds depth; the message isn’t flip—you abide by laws to gain entry, but your way of living signifies your alignments with divine principles.

Interesting trivia: the symbols in Revelation, partly apocalyptic, mostly feel ongoing and dynamic rather than fixed rules. In that sense, they stir a hopeful interpretation of an ever-relevant divine invitation to life—a beckoning to embrace what it means to live right and fulfill a shared human journey!
