Pomegranate heart

Pomegranates are one of the Seven Species (Hebrew: שבעת המינים, Shiv'at Ha-Minim) of fruits and grains enumerated in the Hebrew Bible (Deuteronomy 8:8) as being native products of the Land of Israel. There are over 760 varieties of pomegranate. Pomegranate remains dating back to 1000 BC have been found in Transcaucasia. Jewish tradition teaches that the pomegranate is a symbol of righteousness because its 613 seeds correspond with the 613 commandments of the Torah.
