But the Master said: "If your faith were only like a mustard- seed, you could say to this mulberry tree 'Be up-rooted and planted in the sea,' and it would obey you.

So he ran on ahead and climbed into a mulberry tree, to see Jesus, for he knew that he must pass that way.

Then he taught them a lesson thus-- "Look at the fig tree and all the other trees.

Already, indeed, the axe is lying at the root of the trees. Therefore every tree that fails to bear good fruit will be cut down and thrown into the fire."

Already the axe is lying at the root of the trees. Therefore every tree that fails to bear good fruit will be cut down and thrown into the fire.

The immense crowd of people spread their cloaks in the road, while some cut branches off the trees, and spread them on the road.

These men are represented by 'the two olive trees and the two lamps that stand before the Lord of the earth.'

The first blew; and there came hail and fire mixed with blood, and it fell upon the earth. A third part of the earth was burnt up, and a third of the trees, and every blade of grass.

The man looked up, and said: "I see the people, for, as they walk about, they look to me like trees."
