In the Holy Bible,Jesus was talking about the Fig tree,what was the meaning?

For one thing, the Old Testament prophets often performed symbolic acts to gain attention and convey their message. Jeremiah, for instance, was ordered to break a potter's flask in Israel's sight, as a symbol of how God will smash Israel (Jeremiah 19).



The Hebrew Scriptures often use figs or the fig tree as a symbol of Israel. In Hosea, for example, we find God saying, "Like grapes in the desert, I found Israel. Like the first fruits of the fig tree in its prime, I considered your fathers" (Hosea 9:10).



Finally, we should put the Gospel incident back in context. Mark's story of the fig tree is sandwiched around his account of Jesus' cleansing of the Temple.



It is interesting to note that when Matthew tells of Jesus cursing the fig tree he omits the fact figs were not yet in season. Admittedly, this is a bothersome detail and something of a distraction. But it should not lead us away from the point. Whatever is to be said about figs being in season, Jesus wants to teach a lesson in the here and now. He can't wait around for two or three months until the fig crop is due!



The point, then, for the apostles is the fruitlessness of the Temple worship and piety at Jesus' time. Like the fig tree's abundance of green leaves, the activities of the Temple give the impression of religious vitality, but the Temple worship is barren.



From a distance it appeared to be fruitful, but on close examination, it proved fuitless. The reality was different from appearance. This fig tree was in that context symbolic of Jerusalem, the center of Jewish nation. From a distance Jerusalem gave the impression of a fruitful people, but on close examination, they proved fruitless.



Just like a fruitless tree, a fruitless people also will be removed from God's garden.

Reply:The Fig Tree Symbolism?

The fig is an ancient spiritual symbol for our pituitry gland in the head, which is related to our Crown Chakra. The Crown Chakra is an energy field, which can unfold above our head like a lotus flower. Therefore, the symbol of the Crown Chakra is the lotus flower. It can be thought of as a large "acupunture point."



When Jesus refers to the fig tree being cast away with no fruit, then he spiritually refers to the ancient symbolism:



when the pituitary has no "fruit," which is the unfolding Crown Chakra, then it really misses its function, although it has other physical functions.



Here we see, like always, that Jesus values spiritual functions and virtues above all physical ones.



The same expample is sat with Mary and Martha. Jesus praises Mary for listening to his spirtual teachings and being close to his sacred energy field, instead of laboring for the physical body in the kitchen like Martha does. Martha had complained to Jesus that Mary would not help her



The pituitary can awaken by Tibetan bells or by the Monroe tapes (which use the Tibetan technique). Then the pituitary may be felt as vibrating in one's head. An awesome feeling!



When humankind is ready to regain the God-given Spiritual powers, humankind can create Paradise on earth. Yet, humankind still prefers to gve itself lessons of war, slander, lies, jealousy, secret wrong doing, exploitations of people, animals, plants and the earth etc. with all their consequences, instead of recultivating divine powers.



We still have the means to unfold these powers, we only have to remember. Jesus reminded us of these powers with his many parabels. Once this is understood, much change will take place. Change is already on the way, toward spiritual life.



Thanks for the question.

Reply:While traveling from Bethany to Jerusalem four days before his death, he saw a fig tree that had abundant leaves but no fruit whatsoever. Since the early figs appear along with the leaves—and sometimes even before the leaves develop—the tree’s lack of fruit showed that it was worthless.—Mark 11:13,?14.



This incident took place near the village of Bethphage. Its name means “House of the Early Figs.” This may indicate that the area was known for producing good crops of early figs.



Like the unproductive fig tree that looked healthy, the Jewish nation had a deceptive outward appearance. But it had not produced godly fruitage, and it finally rejected Jehovah’s own Son. Jesus cursed the sterile fig tree, and on the following day, the disciples noticed that it had already withered. That dried-up tree aptly signified God’s forthcoming rejection of the Jews as his chosen people.—Mark 11:20,?21.
Reply:Are you referring to Mat 11:13-14

Fig trees, a popular source of inexpensive food in Israel, require three years from the time they are planted until they can bear fruit. Each tree yields a great amount of fruit twice a year in late spring and in early autumn. This incident occurred early in the spring when the leaves were beginning to bud. The figs normally grow as the leaves fill out, but this tree, though full of leaves, had none. The tree looked promising but offered no fruit. Jesus' harsh words to the fig tree could be applied to the nation of Israel; fruitful in appearance only; Israel was spiritually barren.
