Fig Tree

“But the fig tree replied, ‘Should I stop giving my sweetness and my good fruit, to hold sway over the trees?’”

“One basket had very good figs, like those that ripen early, but the other basket contained very poor figs, so bad they could not be eaten.”

““Jeremiah,” the LORD asked, “what do you see?” “Figs!” I replied. “The good figs are very good, but the bad figs are very bad, so bad they cannot be eaten.””

“Then Jesus told this parable: “A man had a fig tree that was planted in his vineyard. He went to look for fruit on it, but did not find any.”

“Then Jesus told them a parable: “Look at the fig tree and all the trees.”

“Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its branches become tender and sprout leaves, you know that summer is near.”

“and the stars of the sky fell to the earth like unripe figs dropping from a tree shaken by a great wind.”
