MEET YOUR CREATOR: APPRECIATING HASHEM’S GREAT OUTDOORS

T

here is yet another fascinating aspect to the
watermelon: it is beautifully colored inside to repay a
person’s patience! This color, however, is not wasteful,

as it is only the edible part that has
this coloring while the outer rind
remains colorless. Think about it: the
inedible rind has no color since it
does not need one. Outside, the rind
is coated with the thinnest layer of
deep-green coloring to display when
it is ripe – but this coating is
remarkably thin so as not to waste any color!

H

ow about the fact that the watermelon seeds are
only found throughout the fruit, yet not within the
rind? This demonstrates that it has

the intention of spreading its seeds. When
eating the fruit of a watermelon, a person
cannot avoid the need to spit out the seeds,
thereby disseminating them. If the seeds were in the rind, this
would never happen!
