Story Transcript:It: Nel cuore della Puglia, dove l'aria satura profumi di terra e di storia, si estendeva un antico uliveto.En: In the heart of Puglia, where the air is filled with scents of earth and history, an ancient olive grove stretched out.It: Le vecchie olive gorgheggiavano piano sotto il sole primaverile, le loro foglie danzanti nella brezza tiepida.En: The old olives chirped softly under the spring sun, their leaves dancing in the warm breeze.It: In questo angolo di mondo, Luca camminava lentamente tra gli alberi.En: In this corner of the world, Luca walked slowly among the trees.It: Era appena tornato da Milano, in cerca di qualcosa che pensava di aver perduto.En: He had just returned from Milano, searching for something he thought he had lost.It: Luca era un giovane

che la sua famiglia coltivava da generazioni.En: He found comfort among those olive trees that his family had cultivated for generations.It: Matteo, suo fratello maggiore, era lì ad aspettarlo, come sempre.En: Matteo, his older brother, was there waiting for him, as always.It: Matteo non aveva mai lasciato la Puglia.En: Matteo had never left Puglia.It: Non aveva mai voluto o potuto.En: He had never wanted to or been able to.It: C'era sempre lavoro da fare nel frantoio, e lui gestiva la tenuta da quando il loro nonno era passato a miglior vita l'anno precedente.En: There was always work to do at the olive mill, and he had been managing the estate since their grandfather passed away the year before.It: La Pasqua si avvicinava e c'era una tranquilla attesa nell'aria.En: Easter was approaching, and there was a quiet anticipation in the air.It: Ma un giorno, mentre riordinava la vecchia casa del nonno, Luca scoprì qualcosa.En: But one day, while tidying up their grandfather's old house, Luca discovered something.It: Un vecchio scrigno di legno, nascosto tra le ceste e le reti degli anni passati.En: An old wooden box, hidden among the baskets and nets of past years.It: Dentro, vi era una lettera, ingiallita dal tempo, scritta dalla mano tremante del nonno.En: Inside, there was a letter, yellowed by time, written by their grandfather's trembling hand.It: "Matteo," chiese Luca una sera, mentre il sole si ritirava dietro gli ulivi, lascando il cielo di un'arancia brillante.En: "Matteo," Luca asked one evening, as the sun receded behind the olive trees, leaving the sky a brilliant orange.It: "Ho trovato una cosa.En: "I found something.It: Una lettera del nonno."En: A letter from grandpa."It: Matteo s'irrigidì.En: Matteo tensed.It: Sapeva a cosa si riferiva Luca, e

a secret he had protected for so long.It: "Dobbiamo parlare," disse, con un respiro pesante.En: "We need to talk," he said, with a heavy sigh.It: Il giorno seguente, sotto il fresco rifugio di un imponente ulivo, Matteo cominciò a raccontare.En: The following day, under the cool refuge of an imposing olive tree, Matteo began to tell the story.It: Il nonno aveva fatto una scelta difficile durante la guerra.En: Their grandfather had made a difficult choice during the war.It: Aveva nascosto dei rifugiati nella cantina sotto il frantoio.En: He had hidden refugees in the cellar beneath the olive mill.It: Un atto di coraggio e umanità, ma aveva strappato la famiglia da pericoli insormontabili.En: An act of courage and humanity, but it had torn the family from insurmountable dangers.It: Mentre Matteo parlava, Luca scrutava lontano, tra i rami e le ombre che si allungavano.En: As Matteo spoke, Luca gazed into the distance, among the branches and stretching shadows.It: Sentiva un peso sollevarsi e una nuova consapevolezza adagiarsi su di lui.En: He felt a weight lift and a new awareness settle upon him.It: La paura di Matteo non era infondata, ma la sua solitudine lo era stata.En: Matteo's fear was not unfounded, but his loneliness had been.It: "Grazie per averlo condiviso," disse Luca, con un tono più morbido e occhi brillanti di comprensione.En: "Thank you for sharing," Luca said, in a softer tone with eyes bright with understanding.It: Avevano passato anni a circondarsi di silenzio, ma queste nuove parole stavano costruendo ponti che non sapevano di poter costruire.En: They had spent years surrounded by silence, but these new words were building bridges they didn't know they could build.It: Insieme, i due fratelli passeggiarono di nuovo per l'uliveto, ogni passo più leggero del precedente.En: Together, the two brothers walked through the olive grove again, each step lighter than the last.It: Gli ulivi testimoniavano la loro nuova determinazione, le loro foglie fruscianti come una vecchia canzone di famiglia.En: The olive trees witnessed their new determination, their rustling leaves like an old family song.It: In quel pomeriggio di primavera, Luca aveva trovato il suo posto.En: In that spring afternoon, Luca had found his place.It: E Matteo aveva trovato una nuova speranza.En: And Matteo had found new hope.It: Attraverso i secoli e le generazioni, l'antico uliveto aveva ancora storie da raccontare.En: Across the centuries and generations, the ancient olive grove still had stories to tell.It: E per la prima volta, entrambi i fratelli lo ascoltavano insieme, con cuori riconciliati e speranze condivise.En: And for the first time, both brothers listened together, with reconciled hearts and shared hopes.

“The moment people are disconnected from their land and from the plants around them, it's easier to control them because they don't feel the spiritual connection to the land.”  —Aya Gazawi Faour, Olive Odyssey Co-FounderIn For The Wild's new series in collaboration with Olive Odyssey, we hear from their co-founder, Aya Gazawi Faour, who shares about plants indigenous to the Palestinian landscape and their deep ties to culture, resistance, and enduring lifeways. In this opening episode, Aya shares how olive trees shape Palestinian life through everyday routines and long-held traditions. Families structure their seasons around trips to the groves and the olive press, gathering to harvest, share meals, and pass down knowledge. Even in dense urban areas, many keep a single olive tree on a crowded balcony as a living reminder of home. Olives are rooted in memory, community, and resilience and remain deeply defining across the region. This powerful aspect of culture goes far beyond the material. It is a sacred connection to the land and its abundance, a means of making community both with neighbors and with the world, and a crucial reminder of resistance and resilience.       Let this conversation be an invitation to look more closely at the lands and living beings of Palestine. If Aya's stories moved you, take the next step: learn from the farmers and stewards keeping these lifeways alive. Explore the work of Palestinian growers, deepen your understanding of their traditions, and support their harvests through Olive Odyssey. Every gesture of connection helps nourish a culture, a landscape, and a people rooted in resilience.Olive Odyssey brings together farmers from across Palestine with a shared purpose: to tell the story of the Palestinian people through olive oil. Their mission is simple yet powerful — each bottle reflects a deep connection to the land and a commitment to sustainable, community-centered practices. To learn more about the farmers, their methods, and to source olive oil and recipes, visit https://oliveodyssey.com.Plants Are Political is based on Olive Odyssey's series by the same name.Learn more at https://www.forthewild.worldCreditsMusic for this episode was composed by Doe Paoro from her album “Living Through Collapse.” For The Wild is created by Ayana Young, Erica, Ekrem, Julia Jackson, and Victoria Pham. Support the show

Decoding Revelation 11: Signs of the End Times and The Role of the Church In this episode, we delve deeply into Revelation 11, emphasizing its importance for understanding our times and the nearing end. The speaker draws parallels between biblical prophecy and current global events, such as the rise of a Muslim mayor in New York City, the implications of mass immigration, and the transition to a digital ID system in the UK. Central themes include the foreshadowing signs of Jesus Christ's return, the role of the church as witnesses, and the spiritual versus physical aspects of God's Kingdom. The talk also deciphers common interpretations of Revelation, suggesting that the two witnesses symbolize the collective church, empowered by the Holy Spirit. The speaker stresses the importance of understanding and spreading the Kingdom of God amid growing global tension and persecution. Join us as we uncover the biblical narrative and its relevance to our present day. 00:00 Introduction to Revelation 11 00:44 Interpreting the Signs of the Times 02:45 The Rise of Islam in the West 08:05 Digital IDs and the Mark of the Beast 11:35 Understanding Biblical Metaphors 18:31 The Kingdom of God 24:25 The Role of the Church in Advancing God's Kingdom 24:49 The Power of Witnesses and the Holy Spirit 25:29 Revelation 11: A Glimpse of the Future 26:14 The Two Witnesses and Their Significance 27:06 The Tribulation Period Explained 30:59 The Symbolism of the Lampstands and Olive Trees 33:31 The Olive Tree and the Church 41:38 The Persecution of the Church 46:21 The Resurrection and Rapture 47:52 The Final Judgment and the Coming of King Jesus

The Gold Lampstand and Two Olive Trees (Zechariah 4:1-13) by Faith Family Church Oak Grove

In this episode of This Old Tree, Doug introduces us to S'Ozzastru and the Ancient Olive Trees of Sardinia. Some trees are old — and then there's S'Ozzastru. Nestled near the village of Luras on the island of Sardinia, this ancient olive tree has stood for nearly 4,000 years. Also known as "The Great Patriarch" or "The Patriarch of Nature," the Bronze Age tree is a living witness to the rise and fall of civilizations. How has it endured for millennia? Who, across the centuries, has found shelter beneath its branches? And will the millennial olive trees of Sardinia continue to survive? Join us as we travel to the heart of the Mediterranean in search of secrets to one of the world's oldest living trees.

In this shiur, delivered at Thursday night Mishmar in Mevaseret, Rav Burg explains (based on a sicha from the Lubavitcher Rebbe) how Noach knew that the waters of the flood had receded and that it was safe for him to leave the Teiva. We can leave the Teiva when we know that we are essentially Godly (olive trees) and that we can always grow new leaves (freshly plucked). Only then can we confront the challenges of the outside world.

Climate change is a daunting reality for many of us – there's a lot of anxiety around understanding what's happening and how it affects our communities and the foods we grow. While there's no magic bullet, there is a lot of great scientific researchers working hard to share what they know about this. For example – you may not immediately think of Texas when you think of olive oil production, but this is one of few American landscapes suitable for growing olive oil trees!  My guest today is Dr. Vikram Baliga, a horticulture professor in Texas. He studies conservation and has spent most of his career studying food systems, urban water use, and olive tree crops. Vikram also owns a peach orchard and tells a lot of dad jokes – most notably on his fun science podcast, Planthropology. Vikram joins me today to talk more about his research on olive tree growth in Texas – what about the climate makes it a suitable space for their growth, how olive trees respond to weather changes and stressors, and considerations around water use as climates continue to change. He's also an expert scientific communicator, so you're in for a really engaging conversation today!

Israel's war on Palestine has now decisively expanded to the West Bank, where the most aggressive IDF military campaign in decades is now underway. Yet not all was well in the West Bank before this most recent invasion. Palestinians in the West Bank have dealt with a protracted war waged by Zionist settlers and the IDF for decades. One method of resistance has been through agriculture, which for many generations in Palestine has revolved around the cultivation of olives. Cyrus Copeland of the organization Treedom for Palestine joins The Marc Steiner Show to discuss how the Palestinian Farmers' Union uses "freedom farms" to sustain the livelihoods of Palestinians and resist the Israeli onslaught.Studio Production: Cameron GranadinoPost-Production: Alina NehlichHelp us continue producing The Marc Steiner Show by following us and becoming a monthly sustainer.Sign up for our newsletterLike us on FacebookFollow us on TwitterDonate to support this podcast

Donating to watch the film will also enroll you in a 21-day online event called “The World People's Premiere” which happening online from June 6-27 with conversations, music, poetry, and .

Whom we also interview on episode #86 if you want to hear more of the story and vision on the film. The film gives background to the current crisis in Israel/Palestine and brings to light the lives of people we met on our 2022 journey in the occupied West Bank. Their universally human stories speak of intergenerational pain, trauma and resilience. We hope they touch your heart, stir compassion and understanding, and give rise to a pursuit for justice. For without justice, peace remains an empty slogan. Cinema can be a powerful force for change. Our aim is, beyond mere education, to truly move hearts and minds and inspire audiences to echo the calls for freedom, equality and dignity that have gone unanswered for far too long. The film is our modest contribution towards our dream for an end to the occupation in Palestine, the attainment of equal rights and fair treatment for Palestinian people, and the spreading of healing for all intergenerational cycles of trauma in the region. https://whereolivetreesweep.com/

There are many ways to make a movie. Only a few of those ways fit within the Hollywood mold. We believe that rather than taking pop culture as their sole model, Catholics and Catholic filmmakers should be open to a wide variety of artistic approaches. Thus, in this episode James and Thomas discuss the early career of the great Iranian director Abbas Kiarostami, who came up with an approach to filmmaking that is not just different from Hollywood, but different from anyone else in world cinema. Kiarostami spent the first two decades of his career working for the Center for the Intellectual Development of Children and Young Adults in Tehran, making a plethora of fascinating movies either for or about children (fiction, documentary, and educational). In addition to exploring his concerns with childhood and education, he developed a great ability to direct non-professional actors and this allowed him to blur the line between documentary and fiction in his later films - or, perhaps, just to be honest about how human behavior is affected by the presence of a camera, even in a documentary setting. If you only watch one of the films discussed in this episode, you might pick his 1987 feature Where Is the Friend's Home?, an beautifully simple story about childhood, friendship and conscience. Through its patient attention to detail, this film allows us to rediscover a child's-eye perspective on the world. Where Is the Friend's Home? is the first in a sort of trilogy of films Kiarostami shot in the region of Koker in northern Iran. That first installment, while one of his best works, is not actually typical of the unique style he developed soon after, which can be seen even within the trilogy itself. The simplicity of the first story is succeeded by two films that take on multiple perspectives and blur the line between fiction and real life. In a word, things get meta. In the second film, …And Life Goes On, the director of the first film (played by an actor, not the real director) and his young son search for the two boys who acted in the first film, after the Koker region was devastated by a real-life earthquake that killed 50,000 people. Investigating real-life events through a fictional road trip, we get a new perspective on the simple fictional perspective of the first movie. The third film, Through the Olive Trees, gets very complex (but in a most entertaining way). While shooting a scene in the second film, Kiarostami noticed some tension between the two young actors playing a married couple. So he invented a love story about these two actors, and the third film is about this story that takes place while that scene from the second film was being shot. Shot, we should add, by a director who is directing scenes involving the character of the “director” from the 2nd film – so we have two different actors playing directors, both of which represent the real director, Kiarostami. As avant-garde as this sounds, it's a highly entertaining story that never could have been done as well by a director hewing to commercial instincts.
