Peter remembring the tree, said, master, see the fig-tree, which you cursed, is quite withered.

Seeing at a distance a fig tree in leaf, He went to see if He would find anything on it. But He found nothing but leaves, for it was not the season for figs.

And when they were going by in the morning, they saw the fig-tree dead from the roots.

But as to the dead coming back to life; have you not seen in the book of Moses, about the burning thorn-tree, how God said to him, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?

Take an example from the fig-tree: when its branches become soft and put out their leaves, you see that the summer is near;

thereupon Jesus said to the fig-tree, "no one shall ever eat any fruit of yours." and his disciples took notice of it.
