Israel was created as a nation with a Jewish majority and it has laws that make special provisions favoring Jewish Immigration. As such, it is a Jewish nation. The largest religious minority in Israel are Muslims, with Christians coming in third place. The Israeli government recognizes Jewish, Isamic and Christian authority over religious matters such as marriage and divorce.

How did the fig tree represent the nation of Israel?

The nation of Israel was a representation of the true Kingdom of God. Hosea 9:10 is a good verse that shows the link between the nation of Israel and the fig tree. Later, the nation of Israel ceased from being a representation of the true Kingdom of God. This end is seen in Mark 11:13-14 and Mark 11:20-21. (From history we know the nation of Israel ceased from being a nation shortly thereafter when Jerusalem was devastated by the Roman Titus.) Remarkably, in 1948 Israel became a viable nation once again. Mark 13:28 explains that when the nation of Israel becomes a nation again that the end of time is near.
