Hi,
"[Describing the Etrog, the Torah says] 'The beautiful fruit of a tree' - This is Gd, regarding Whom it is written, 'You are clothed in glory and beauty.'
"[Describing the Lulav, the Torah says] 'Palms of dates' - This is Gd, regarding Whom it is written, 'The Righteous will flower like a date.'
"[Describing the Hadas, the Torah says] 'Braided branch' - This is Gd, regarding Whom it is written, 'He stands among the Hadasim.'
"[Describing the Aravah, the Torah says] 'Willows of the stream' - This is Gd, regarding Whom it is written, 'Praise the One who rides among Aravot; Gd is His Name.'"
(Midrash, Vayyikra Rabbah 30:9)
Chag sameach,
Mordechai
