Feb 18, 2019 at 17:17 | comment | added | Ruminator | Perhaps it is an idiom that means that the tree withered from top to bottom. Indicating that it was not just the leaves that faded but also the roots indicating that the plant was completely dead and not just ailing. Hence, no more would anyone eat fruit from that tree. Apparently the context suggests that the tree refers to the temple slash old covenant. | |
