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.
olive or fig tree
A symbol of Israel
The fig tree is often used symbolically in the Bible to represent Israel and its spiritual condition. In the New Testament, Jesus cursed a barren fig tree as a metaphor for the spiritual barrenness of the religious leaders of his time. This story serves as a warning about the importance of bearing spiritual fruit and the consequences of hypocrisy and unfaithfulness.
Jesus used the fig tree in parables, often when refering to modern day Israel
In the context of the story, the fig tree represents growth, potential, and the passage of time. It symbolizes the character's hopes, dreams, and aspirations, as well as the challenges and uncertainties they face in achieving them.
In Aesop's fables the olive tree boasts that it keeps it's leave throughout the year while the fig tree becomes naked in the winter. The olive tree is hit by lightening and consumed. Moral: boasting can lead to unexpected disaster.
