Thematic Bible



And on the morrow, as they were coming from Bethany, he was hungry; and he saw at a distance a fig-tree that had leaves; and he went, if perhaps he might find any thing on it. And when he came to it, he found nothing but leaves; for it was not the time for figs. And he answered and said to it: No more may any one ever eat fruit from you. And his disciples heard it.

Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets and stonest those who are sent to thee, how often have I desired to gather thy children together, as a bird gathers her young under her wings, and you refused. Behold, your house is left to you deserted. For I say to you, That you shall not see me henceforth, till you shall say, Blessed is he that comes in the name of the Lord.
