Grove is the cluster of trees — and the righteous are planted together in God's forest. 'The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon. Those that be planted in the house of the LORD shall flourish in the courts of our God.' Grove is God's sacred planting.
Spiritual meaning
Grove flourishes in God's courts — trees of righteousness, the LORD's planting, palms and cedars growing together, the sacred wood that glorifies God.
