Olivet
Olive: The fruit of the olive-tree. This tree yielded oil which was highly valued. The best oil was from olives that were plucked before being fully ripe, and then beaten or squeezed (Deuteronomy 24:20; Isaiah 17:6; 24:13) It was called "beaten," or "fresh oil" (Exodus 27:20) There were also oil-presses, in which the oil was trodden out by the feet (Micah 6:15) James (James 3:12) calls the fruit "olive berries." The phrase "vineyards and olives" (Judges 15:5) A.V. should be simply "olive-yard," or "olive-garden," as in the Revised Version.
