Do you think the tree of knowledge of good and evil in the garden of Eden was a fig tree?

I am thinking so because Adam and Eve covered themselves up with fig leaves right after they ate from the tree! Then much later, the Son of God cursed a fig tree and told it never to bear fruit again!

Do you think the tree of knowledge of good and evil in the garden of Eden was a fig tree?
I'm thinking the fictional "tree of knowledge" was an apple tree. That's what I was taught in sunday school.
Reply:Fig leaves are large, and Adam may have needed a big leaf!
Reply:no the tree of knowledge bears the ripest fruit, so it couldn't be a fig tree,
Reply:No your gross (jk). Figs are delicious. History does not record the fruit of the tree. Some think is was an apple. Apples arent that good till they are baked in to a pie. Yummmm.
Reply:I think if it wasn't specified, it's not important for us to know.
Reply:IDK
Reply:You're a thinker. I'm sleepy and my fridge is hissing at me.
Reply:I don't give a fig....honestly are you trying to get my guilt up for confession or something?
Reply:it was a poplar tree cuz it made them very poplar
Reply:No. I think it was a myth. The tree was an apple tree in the story, however. The word "adam" means "mankind" in Hebrew - you can figure out the rest.
Reply:There is a tree in the middle east that is said to be the tree and the people there don't have much to do with it.
Reply:No, I don't think so. I think it was an apple tree.
Reply:I think it was a banana tree; that's why it didn't take the serpent long to talk her into "eating" it.
Reply:no, because figs are gross... and the fruit was delicious...
