Luk1306-Jesus cursing the fig tree.jpg
Parable - The Barren Fig Tree
 
In this parable, the owner is generally regarded as representing God, and the gardener (vinedresser) Jesus. Fig trees were often planted in vineyards.

The fig tree was a common symbol for Israel, and may also have that meaning here, or the tree in the parable may refer to the religious leadership. In either case, the parable reflects Jesus offering his hearers one last chance for repentance. The limited time period mentioned provides an "eschatological urgency".

The parable has been connected to the miracle of cursing the fig tree. Richard Whately commented that this parable "is one which our Lord may be said to have put before his hearers twice; once in words, once in action."

(Luke 13:6-9, JesusParables)
  
People's New Testament Luke 13:6-9 Had a fig tree. A common fruit in Palestine. It represents here the Jewish nation. Found none. The nation did not glorify God by fruitfulness in righteousness. Three years. The period of Christ's ministry among the Jews. Cut it down. As worthless. Let it alone this year also. The last year of opportunity was then being given. After that year and the final rejection of Christ the doom of the nation was sealed.
