And then he says with faith you can move a mountain (holy place for Zeus or Yahweh or someone else?) into an ocean (dwelling of Poseidon?) | |

| Jul 9, 2023 at 9:09 | comment | added | Michael16 | I dont think he broke any law by destroying a tree, especially when he owns the whole world, everything is created by him. Follow the rule of weighing the law against each other. It was not vandalism against nature. If he destroyed a tree to illustrate a teaching and his power, it was justified. engediresourcecenter.com/2019/06/10/… | |

| Jul 9, 2023 at 4:17 | comment | added | Michael16 | Just search for the duplicates thoroughly before making a topic. The fruitless tree is cursed and punished,so will man. | |

| Jul 9, 2023 at 3:31 | comment | added | user11928 | μηκέτι ἐκ σοῦ καρπὸς γένηται εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα (Matt. 21:19) and μηκέτι εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα ἐκ σοῦ μηδεὶς καρπὸν φάγοι (Mk. 11:14): "Let no fruit ever grow on you again!" (Matt. 21:19) and "May no one ever eat fruit from you again!" (Mark 11:14) does not mean that the fig tree is sterile or productive,however, if she was already sterile, why would Jesus make her redundantly sterile? | |

| Jul 9, 2023 at 3:07 | comment | added | user11928 | the fruitlessness of the tree would appear quite natural, and therefore not be justified as an occasion for cursing it | |
| Jul 9, 2023 at 3:05 | comment | added | user11928 | since the tree had leaves, which in fact in the case of fig-trees come after the fruits, they are different questions. | |
| Jul 9, 2023 at 2:58 | comment | added | Michael16 | Duplicate and also opinion based. Lacking fruit means being unproductive. Leaf does not mean produce but fruits. | |
| Jul 9, 2023 at 2:58 | comment | added | Michael16 | Does this answer your question? Why would Jesus look for figs out of season? | |
| Jul 9, 2023 at 2:48 | comment | added | user11928 | Codex Vercellensis, the Earliest Surviving Manuscript of the Old Latin Gospels, and Codex Veronensis have as a variant respectively the phrase (non enim erat tempus ficus) and (non erat enim tempus ficuum) for Mark 11:13 | |
