Summary
Jesus and His disciples were traveling from Bethany to Jerusalem that morning. Jesus was hungry. On the way, He saw a fig tree beside the road and though it gave the appearance of being fruitful, He knew it wasn’t. Let’s consider the lesson we can learn from that fig tree.
Episode Description
Just as Jesus knew everything about each of the men and women who accompanied Him – the one who would betray Him, the one who would deny Him, the one who would doubt Him – He knew there was no fruit on that fig tree that morning.
He knows all things past, present and future. So, if He was hungry, why was He walking over to a fig tree that He already knew was barren? And if He was hungry, why didn’t He just turn some of the leaves of that tree into fruit? Something tells me there was a whole lot more to what happened that morning than what meets the eye!
