'Fig trees' in the Bible
a land of wheat and barley, of vines and fig trees and pomegranates, a land of olive oil and honey;
He struck down their vines also and their fig trees,And shattered the trees of their territory.
“They will devour your harvest and your food;They will devour your sons and your daughters;They will devour your flocks and your herds;They will devour your vines and your fig trees;They will demolish with the sword your fortified cities in which you trust.
“I will destroy her vines and fig trees,Of which she said, ‘These are my wagesWhich my lovers have given me.’And I will make them a forest,And the beasts of the field will devour them.
“I smote you with scorching wind and mildew;And the caterpillar was devouringYour many gardens and vineyards, fig trees and olive trees;Yet you have not returned to Me,” declares the Lord.
All your fortifications are fig trees with ripe fruit—When shaken, they fall into the eater’s mouth.
