You seem to have misquoted yourself:
keep the way to the Tree of life
vs.
keep the way OF the Tree of life
Those are NOT the same meaning!!!
The King James version says “Keep the way of the Tree of Life”, I quoted that correctly. I was also making the point that there still is a way back TO THE TREE OF LIFE, which is another point but not a misquote or a contradiction, as far as I can see. Thanks for the Heads up though.
