Hi, I'm wondering if date fruit bears any significance. Does the bible say anything about date fruit? Do the fruit or the palms symbolize anything?

The first time we read about a palm tree is in Exodus 15:27. The leaves were used for weaving baskets, ropes, rugs and as roofs for the houses. The trunk was used to build structures with and the fruits were eaten. A palm branch symbolizes peace, victory, triumph and eternal life. The date is a symbol of honesty and righteousness.
