Behold Calling Curse Cursed Cursedst Dead Dried Fig Fig-tree Master Memory Peter Rabbi Recollecting Remembered Remembering Remembrance Reminded Says Tree Withered

11:20-24 They saw the fig tree dried up. See notes on Mt 21:19-22. Mark adds the fact, not stated by Matthew, that this language was spoken the day after the tree was cursed.

11:19-26 The disciples could not think why that fig-tree should so soon wither away; but all wither who reject Christ; it represented the state of the Jewish church. We should rest in no religion that does not make us fruitful in good works. Christ taught them from hence to pray in faith. It may be applied to that mighty faith with which all true Christians are endued, and which does wonders in spiritual things. It justifies us, and so removes mountains of guilt, never to rise up in judgment against us. It purifies the heart, and so removes mountains of corruption, and makes them plain before the grace of God. One great errand to the throne of grace is to pray for the pardon of our sins; and care about this ought to be our daily concern.
