Thematic Bible: The barren fig tree

And he spake this parable: A certain had a fig tree planted in his vineyard; and he came seeking fruit on it, and found not. And he said to the vine-dresser, Behold, three years I am come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and find not: cut it off; wherefore also does it leave the earth unemployed? And he having answered says to him, Lord, let it go also this year, till I shall dig round it, and cast dung: read more.
Whereas also it might bear fruit: and if not, afterwards thou shalt cut it off.
