our name
The cedar tree is a symbol of strength, stability, and endurance. Some date the cedars in Lebanon’s Al Shouf Cedar Nature Reserve to be 3,000 years old, the approximate time when King Solomon reigned in Israel. King Solomon knew the trees – as the wisest man in the world, the text of the book in 1 Kings says he spoke of the trees. Cedars of Lebanon live for thousands of years. Their wood does not rot. It resists fire, smells wonderful, conducts sound in wonderful ways and is extremely strong. Solomon knew the Cedars of Lebanon would stand forever and chose their wood as the floor and walls of the Temple. Cedar Ridge began with the same idea in mind, to bring strength, stability, and endurance to the investment portfolios of our clients through the ups and downs of the market.
“The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree:
He shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
Those that be planted in the house of the LORD
Shall flourish in the courts of our God.
They shall still bring forth fruit in old age;
They shall be fat and flourishing;
To shew that the LORD is upright: He is my rock,
And there is no unrighteousness in him.”
- Psalms 92:12-15
