Tertullian, on the other hand, argues that Jesus must have descended from David by blood through his mother Mary. [114] He sees Biblical support in Paul's statement that Jesus was "born of a descendant of David according to the flesh". [115] Affirmations of Mary's Davidic ancestry are found early and often.

Sometimes Jesus and other figures are shown in the cups of flowers, as the fruit or blossom of the Tree.
