Jer. 1:11      Jer. 1:13

Jeremiah 1:12

Then the Lord (Yahweh) said to me, "You have seen well, for I am watching (Hebr. shoqed) over my word to perform it."
[The word for watching over (Hebr. shoqed) shares its root with the word for almond tree (Hebr. shaked) in verse 11. There is also a connection to how the shape of the almond resembles a human eye. God watches over his word with his eye. The almond tree is also the first tree to bloom in spring and is therefore a sign of a new spring and stands as a symbol of the prophetic. Something special is also that the almond tree is the last to lose its leaves in autumn. The seven-branched candlestick in the temple (menorah) that shines at night also has elements designed like almond blossoms, see Ex. 25:33.]
