Pomegranates in the Bible: The Fruit of Life?

Why did the high priest wear pomegranates all around the hem of his robe? (Exo 28:33)
And why were pomegranates engraved on the pillars of the temple? (1Ki 7:18)
Why did ancient Assyrians and Persians associate pomegranates with eternal life and fertility?
This is a revisit from a comment I made in my video on Priestly Garments. There’s a lot more to pomegranates than I originally thought. So I invited my wife to help me explain.
