'Fig tree' in the Bible

and when he saw a solitary fig tree beside the road, he went to it, but found nothing on it but leaves. And he said to it, "Let no man gather fruit from you forever." And at once the fig tree withered away.

When his disciples saw this, they were astonished. "How instantaneously," they said, "the fig tree withered!"

In reply Jesus said to them, "In solemn truth I tell you that if you have faith and never doubt, you will not only do what has been done to the fig tree, but even if you say to this mountain, 'Up, cast yourself into the sea!' it shall be done;

"Learn from the fig tree, her parable; when her branches are become soft, and put forth leaves, you know that summer is near;

and seeing a fig tree in the distance full of leaves, he came to see if he could find anything on it, and found on it nothing but leaves (for it was not the time of figs).

and as they (he and his disciples) were passing along in the morning, they saw the fig tree already withered from the root.

Then Peter remembered, and exclaimed, "Look, Rabbi, the fig tree which you cursed is withered up."

"From the fig tree learn now her parable; as soon as ever her branches are full of sap and bursting into leaf, you know that summer is near.

"How do you know me?" asked Nathanael. "Before Philip called you," replied Jesus, "when you were under the fig tree, I saw you."

Jesus said in reply. "Do you believe because I said to you, 'I saw you under the fig tree?'

Can a fig tree, my brothers, bear olives; or a grape-vine, figs? No more can salt water yield fresh water.

and the stars of the sky fell to earth, as a fig tree shaken by a gale drops its unripe figs.
