"Behold, upon the bank of the river was a very great profusion of trees on each side. He said to me, 'This water is going out to the eastern region, and will descend upon the Kinneret and come to the Dead Sea [in the south-eastern corner], to the Sea of Sodom that is brought out, and the salty waters will be healed. Every living creature that will swarm wherever the rivers will go, will live, and the fish will be very abundant, for these waters have come there, and wherever the river flows, they shall be healed and live. It will be [a place] beside which fishermen will stand along the shore, from Ein-gedi to Ein-eglaim; a place for spreading nets they will be; their fish will be of many kinds, like the fish of the Great River, very many. Its marshes and its swamps will not be healed; they will be set aside for salt [mines]. However, by the river, on its bank from each side, will grow all kinds of fruit trees; their leaf will not wither, neither will its fruit end; month after month they will bear fruit, for its water will flow from the Sanctuary, and their fruit shall serve for food and their leaves for a cure." ~ Yechezkel 47:7-12
