Ya sanctified in the Church of the Transfiguration (Apple Spas) and only after that they were allowed to eat. Among the southern Slavs it was done in St. Peter's day (29.U1). In Ukrainian legends "Saint Monday" during rzhavlenija on the day of the Transfiguration of the Lord gives sinners the apples outside the walls of Paradise, and the righteous in Paradise get Ya out of the hands of the Lord. In Christian legends the Apple tree and its fruit is connected with the fall of Adam and eve that when they partook of the forbidden fruit, were expelled from Paradise. In the Ukrainian legend of a fallen angel seduces them Ya, saying that by eating it, they will become gods. China "a Real Apple (Malus silvestris) in China is not cultivated; found varieties more similar with M. prunifolia, outwardly beautiful, but bloom poorly.

The Bible / old Testament In the Bible you can find lots of places where you will not find the explanations: what apples are we talking; are mentioned several times only grenades. Therefore, in the history of the seduction of eve by the Serpent, they say, not about Apple, but about a certain tree, "we may eat of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden" (Genesis 3: 1-6). The Apple tree in the biblical "Song of songs" (2: 1-8) — love and carnal attraction, Christianity, Eaten by Adam and eve Apple made them mortal. Finding a role forbidden and so dearly paid by our forefather of the fruit, Apple is an expression of original sin. A symbol of sin and falsehood has become the Apple of Sodom — outwardly beautiful but within full of ashes, as written in "Jewish history" of Flavius Josephus (37 — 103 A. D.), but before the end of the expression without explaining. In the Christian symbolism of the Apple in the hand of Christ expresses the expiation of original sin; also in the hand of the virgin Mary as the new eve. Basket with apples — the attribute of St. Dorothea. in Christian symbolism, the emblem of the Earth and earthly aspirations, desires (temporary, transitory), and its color, odor and sweetness — the temptations of the underworld. Solomon 2:3, which says: "What Apple trees between the trees of the forest, so is my beloved among the sons. In his shade I delight to sit, and his fruit was sweet to my taste". This passage has been interpreted as an allusion to Christ. Soglasno traditions, as Christ is the new Adam, and Mary considered the new eve, and for this reason the Apple in the hands of Mary is also pointing to salvation. Apples became the attribute of Saint. Dorothea. By tradition (but not in the biblical source), the fruit of the tree of Knowledge (ADAM AND EVE, 2). Perhaps this borrowing from the classical image of the Golden apples of the Hesperides (HERCULES, 11). Hence the symbol of the Apple as the fall of man and (when he holds the Christ Child) an allusion to the future mission of Christ as Redeemer (the VIRGIN MARY, 13; still life). The Apple in the mouth of the monkey has a similar meaning. In Europe the Apple of Paradise, from the tree of knowledge of good and evil, is a symbol of temptation and sin. In paintings of the fall of the first parents (Adam and eve) the serpent holds in his mouth the seductive Apple, although in the text it is just about "fruits", "fruit": the Apple in the East was unknown. Depending on traditions in place of the Apple are the figs, quince or pomegranate Apple. Paintings of Christ's birth show the infant Jesus, who takes the Apple; symbolically he, therefore, takes on the sins of the world, so apples on the Christmas tree can be interpreted as the possibility of a return to Paradise through the birth of Christ. But first, a tempting sweetness of the Apple was associated with temptation and sin because of the similarity of the Latin word (malus — Apple) with the word malum — bad, evil, sinful. Therefore in works of art the Baroque period is often death in the form of a skeleton holding an Apple: the price of purworejo death. In the Christian tradition has a dual meaning. On one side is evil (malum in Latin) is the fruit of the seduction of Adam and eve. On the other hand, is depicted with Christ or the Virgin Mary, it points to the new Adam and salvation. A monkey with an Apple in his mouth means the fall. In Latin the word "Apple" and the word "evil" spelled identically — malum. This is seen as a connection to the biblical legend, which stated that the forbidden fruit from the tree of Knowledge from the garden of Eden eaten by Adam and eve was the Apple (Gen. 3:3). In scenes of the temptation by the serpent in the garden of Eden eve is usually depicted with an Apple in his hand, which she offers to Adam. Apple can also be a symbol of Christ, the new Adam, who has shouldered the burden of human sin. For this reason, when we see Adam with the Apple in his hand, it points to sin but when the Apple in the hands of Christ, it symbolizes the fruit of salvation. This interpretation is based on the book of the Song of Solomon 2:3 which says, "What the Apple-trees between the trees of the forest, so is my beloved among the sons. In his shade I delight to sit, and his fruit was sweet to my taste". This passage has been interpreted as an allusion to Christ. According to tradition, Christ is the new Adam, and Mary considered the new eve, and for this reason the Apple in her hands also indicates the salvation. Despite the fact that the fruit that tempted eve in the garden of Eden, the Bible is not named, Apple was the first fruit, which was chosen the later interpreters of Holy Scripture. The Apple as a symbol, thus, has acquired both positive and negative value in relation to the concept of "knowledge" (since eve plucked him from the tree of Knowledge of good and evil). In art, the Apple symbolizes the original sin, if he is depicted in the mouth of the monkey or snake. Jesus Christ is the Savior often holding an Apple or specifies it is a symbol of Salvation. The Apple in the role of the forbidden fruit of Paradise was named later, after which it has become a symbol of the knowledge of Good and Evil, the starting point for the subsequent establishment of the "scale" of grades and standards of morality. "Commonly think that this name means lemon tree with its fruits. The actual Apple tree is very rare in the East, and bring them apples don't have beauty and pleasant smell, and in this respect it is not consistent with the image of him in Scripture. Same with lemon or orange tree, on the contrary, it fully corresponds to what is said in the book. The Song of songs about its beauty. the fragrant smell and pleasant taste and refreshing effect of the fruits thereof. Others understand under the name of symmetry orange tree".

Heraldry In everyday life Apple because of their almost perfectly round shape is perceived as a space character, so the kings and the kings along with the sceptre held in the hands representing the whole world "majestic Apple" (power). In the ancient world, the coins were depicted with three circles indicating known to the Emperor Augustus parts of earth — Asia, Africa, Europe, and the "majestic Apple" was topped with the figure of the goddess of victory (Nike, lat. Victoria). In the Christian era, the place Nick took the cross, so even the astronomical symbol for Earth is a circle with the cross on it. It is noteworthy that even unattractive Apple-wilding found its use in heraldry. "Forest Apple, hard and sour, especially good is used to store wine, so it is not turned. Thus, the rigidity of the evil is punished, virtue is saved" (Bekler, 1688). Emblems Golden apples are personified attribute of vigilance, and harpies that accompany greed.
