Why grouped together?
Hi. Please tell me why the underlined part, which is part of Haggai 2:19 of the New International Version of the Bible, has the parts "the vine and the fig tree" and "the pomegranate and the olive tree" grouped together? I think the whole part can be written as "the vine and the fig, pomegranate and olive trees." Thank you in advance for your help.
Until now, the vine and the fig tree, the pomegranate and the olive tree have not borne fruit.
