Fig tree symbolism
Have you ever wondered about the symbolism of figs in the Bible? Have you ever wondered what does it matter? Does it matter? Why does Jesus referred to it in the New Testament? Why is it referred to so many times in the Old Testament? Well, I want to tell you, it does matter. It helps us to understand the stories that Jesus is trying to teach us. It helps us understand the situation that the Israelites were in in the Old Testament. So today I want to share with you what does the Bible say about figs? And I hope you enjoy this because I'm a net reader, the biblical nutritionists, and welcome to this channel on UA-cam and Facebook and all of these other platforms that we're sharing this because it is my desire to help you understand why God uses so many foods, symbols in scripture, why it matters, and why these foods are so healthy for you today.
Fig symbolism
All right, so today we're going to cover what does the Bible say about figs? Now, if you have other questions relating to this topic or other topics that you're saying, hey and net, can you cover this topic I've always wondered about? Then be sure and leave a comment down below. I Will Capture those comments and I will do a video or I'll just connect with you personally and answer your questions because as you know, I'm here about to help you be confident in your cooking there for confident in your health there for confident in your future and overall understanding of how much God loves you. Okay, so let's get started with what the Bible says about figs. Okay, so you need to understand the fig tree. Now, if you've never seen a fig tree, it's actually right here behind me. This is a fig tree that I planted two years ago.
Fig tree symbolism in the bible
Actually soon after I planted that first winter, it totally died away. I thought, okay, so much for that. I've lost my fig tree the next spring though the roots were still healthy and so new branches started to grow. And as you can see, it's looking pretty good here right now. And so we need to understand God gives us good gifts. In fact, if you've been following my teaching, you understand that in genesis the word good means excellent of its kind, valuable and estimation. That means everything God created is excellent. The food, the trees, the grass, the birds, and you, you are excellent of your kind of, don't let anyone ever tell you differently. Okay? So everything God created is good. That's important for us to understand. Okay? So when he gave Israel to the Jewish people, it was just an old piece of land. But then, yet God said in Deuteronomy eight he says, I'm bringing you into a good land, a good land with wheat and barley, vines and fig trees, Duh, thank tree.
Deuteronomy 8:8
So this land that God has taken the Israelites to has fig trees in it. It's one of the seven foods of the promised land. That's important. Now I've done other videos on figs and I've done other videos on the foods of the promised land, so I'll be sure and capture those videos. There is a link right up here at the top. You can capture those videos to even learn more. Okay, so look at this. So these are seven foods mentioned in Deuteronomy eight that are all going to be available for them when they get to the promised land. Now remember there's some people living in the promised land

What a blessing this study of Figs has been. Thank you so much. God bless.
Thank you! I just came accross this because today I was reading scripture about curse of fig tree!
When I hear Annette say that " I am excellent of my kind, do not let anybody put me down" , I say to myself:" that is it! That is what I need to hear! I am healed!"
I think that all the problems we have in life stem from self condemnation, not feeling well about ourselves, from thinking that we are guilty, bad, shameful, not good enough.
Religion, our loved ones, teachers, parents, adults etc...said the wrong things to us and we believed them.
My father respected and put my 6 brothers on the pedestals and belittle his 5 daughters. He said that girls should go in the kitchen . He said that his sons bring honor to the family!
And this hurt me all my life. Thanks to the love and healing of God, I am getting better. And watching this video, Annette confirms with us that women are not inferior to anybody. My four sisters are affected by my father looking down on women also, but I am the one who is most affected because I and my two little children lived with my parents for 13 years after I divorced my husband. I heard days in days out from my dad how successful my 6 brothers are!
And my mom was not treated well by my dad either. They are deceased now. I forgive my dad.
This channel of Annette is very healing, giving us faith, joy, hope and good health. Other health channels make us more worried, more afraid, especially with the scary pictures of sick people, heart attack, stroke etc...
Thank you Annette. I hope you will get millions of subscribers.
I never knew what the meaning of sitting under the fig tree! Always wanted to know! Always thought Nathaniel was praying , talking to Jesus, this is beautiful! Thank you!
You are so welcome!
Thank you for this lesson! Our fig tree started out just like your tree. Now it takes up a 1/4 of our yard. This is the first year (out of about 15 years) that our tree suffered from a late freeze. We had to cut off quite a few branches. It is still strong. and has a tree full of figs that we will enjoy in about 4 -6 weeks. One thing about a fig tree, when the leave begin to form and 'bud' out, begin to water daily. Water is so very important while the figs are starting and up until it is time to harvest. Blessings on you new tree!
I love all of your information and expertise on God's great foods. I would love to go to Isreal next time you're planning a trip.
I live with my brother and his wife in NV and I sleep under a fig tree it’s right next to my bedroom it’s huge and the figs are coming up now they are still real green though..
What a blessing!
This very interesting to listen
I’ve been spending a lot of time building my relationship with God. Figs aren’t a common fruit you see in North Carolina but yesterday my mother said a phillipino lady gave them to her🥹 I felt so connected to God that it’s beyond explanation. So now I am watching videos about the figs and then reading the scriptures and stories in my Bibles
God is good! ❤
I ENJOYED SO MUCH YOUR EXPLANATION OF THE IMPORTANCE OF THE SYMBOLISM REPRESENTED BY THE FRUIT TREE. MAY WE BEAR MUCH FRUIT FOR OUR LORD.
Thanks for watching Roberta Gabor! 👩🏼🌾
Thank you for your teachings I’m learning a lot from you
God bless you
I know this might sound strange, but God has really been speaking to me about huge fig trees last year, so I just searched on UA-cam to see what the biblical meaning about this fruit is, and your video popped up and was really helpful for me, so that I can dive deeper in understanding the symbolism in fig trees and the fruit. Thank you so much. God bless you and may he bless your year 2024 with His blessings 🌳🕊️👑❤️✝️
Thanks for sharing!!
Excellent
Than you Lord! For you bringing Annette to me. 🙌 ♥️🙏
Fig leaves are they edible and what are the benefits please. I have been searching for this information. Thank you for making such very detailed videos for health benefits. God bless you and your ministry.
Thank you Annette! I enjoyed your video on the fig tree! Carl Banks Jr.

Great video. Thank you so much! Would you consider a video on gluten intolerance/allergy/celiac disease? I have been told to not replace with other nongluten flours as it may cause a new intolerance over time. Any thoughts? Blessings.
Praise the Lord 🙏 Mam

Very helpful! I love figs and the same thing happened to my tree lol I had to prune it and now figs are growing!
Thanks for sharing!
@@TheBiblicalNutritionist So cool that you replied! Thank you :)
I love my fig tree too!
@@TheBiblicalNutritionist My aunt has one and my figs are almost ripe! When i asked her for tips on how to tell when the figs are ripe she said "feel them...when they feel like soft skin...they are ripe" i thought that was interesting because I was thinking about the leaves and how they look like hands and you mentioned how fig trees can be dead but come back to life because the roots are strong
@FRED LIMA I have no idea what you're getting at? What are you trying to say?
Would you consider doing a video on raisin cakes?
I dreamt of a fig 🌲 tree, i saw it in a vision then I saw it with my eyes

How I wish we could meet in person, and Id loved too, or even in a vedeo call , even if I am very far from you....😊😊😊. Im from the Philipines, and I wonder I could plant a Fig tree in backyard.....I am very much hopping to see in person even i a single call.....which Id loved too....❤❤❤
God bless you
Thank you
I'm really excited about getting to know you!
Thanks so much!
I had a dream about a fig tree and it's fruits were getting ready to rip
Thank you for your beautiful video I myself did not taste Fig's until I was much older in my late twenty's and I remember eating and little container of Fig's one day as it was as if I really tasted their beauty this time I remember looking at the Fig's and thinking what a beautiful fruit an ancient fruit, call me mad or crazy but there was something very special about the Fig's it was different It was an awakening I also had this feeling with Olive's and your video just explained why, Thank you Xo
That’s funny you say that I just tried my first fig last summer at age 26 my uncle and aunt planted a fig tree and it neared so much fruit they couldn’t keep up! My aunt made me eat them daily, they’re so delicious and because of the biblical meaning I tasted what Jesus tasted! It was surreal! They’re in California and sadly I’m up northwest, won’t be able to visit this year but Jesus blessed my womb and now bearing “fruit” after prior losses. The fig fruit is now one of my favorite fruits even if I can’t eat them often 😍
God Bless You
You too!
Thank you. I look forward to explore losing biblical recipes. I do have one question. I hear people say God wants us to tell him we love Him” , but Christ said if you love me keep my commandments. What do you think he means? The torah? The 10 commandments? The main 2 that Christ mentioned?
I absolutely love your approach to explaining the symbolism of the food from the Bible. Thank you for sharing it. I love figs and I've grown a small tree in a pot at home:) Looking forward to moving it to a garden and see it thriving as my faith. Blessings!
Awesome! Thank you!
thank you!
My pleasure to serve you
What’s the biblical meaning of eaten figs in a dream?
I had a dream where by I was picking up figs from a fig tree branch. Just wondering what it means.
Thank you.
Your message was very beautiful and I enjoyed learning about the Fig tree! However, I'd like to point out that while the Bible uses physical references, it is only to point out SPIRITUAL TRUTHS. Israel is not a "physical" nation, it is a "spiritual" one! There is only a remnant of the Jewish Nation (people) that is redeemed, the rest are walking in idolatry by rejecting Jesus Christ. Check out who John says numerous times is Anti-Christ.
2 John 1:7-11 For many deceivers have gone out into the world who do not confess Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist. 8 Look to yourselves, that we do not lose those things we worked for, but that we may receive a full reward.
9 Whoever transgresses and does not abide in the doctrine of Christ does not have God. He who abides in the doctrine of Christ has both the Father and the Son. 10 If anyone comes to you and does not bring this doctrine, do not receive him into your house nor greet him; 11 for he who greets him shares in his evil deeds.
John is warning us that if we receive ANY DOCTRINE other than the GOSPEL of JESUS CHRIST, we should not receive that into our house (our fleshly temple, our heart and our mind where we are SEALED to GOD)! We are warned that if we do, we are in danger of losing our reward!
Also see what the book of revelation says about the Synagogue of Satan and those who say they are Jews but are not. Revelation 2:9
"I know your works, tribulation, and poverty (but you are rich); and [I know] the blasphemy of those who say they are Jews and are not, but [are] a synagogue of Satan.
Revelation 3:9
"Indeed I will make [those] of the synagogue of Satan, who say they are Jews and are not, but lie--indeed I will make them come and worship before your feet, and to know that I have loved you.
And just in case I haven't warned fully enough about the "Leaven of the Pharisees", see who Jesus Christ himself says will be persecuting and killing Christians in the last days!
Matthew 10:17
"But beware of men, for they will deliver you up to councils and scourge you in their synagogues.
Matthew 23:34
"Therefore, indeed, I send you prophets, wise men, and scribes: [some] of them you will kill and crucify, and [some] of them you will scourge in your synagogues and persecute from city to city,
Mark 13:9
"But watch out for yourselves, for they will deliver you up to councils, and you will be beaten in the synagogues. You will be brought before rulers and kings for My sake, for a testimony to them.
Luke 12:11
"Now when they bring you to the synagogues and magistrates and authorities, do not worry about how or what you should answer, or what you should say.
Luke 21:12
"But before all these things, they will lay their hands on you and persecute [you], delivering [you] up to the synagogues and prisons. You will be brought before kings and rulers for My name's sake.
I am NOT anti-Semitic, I am however, anti-Synagogue of Satan!!! As far as I know, there is only one religion with a Synagogue! God Bless you for your message. I will watch more of your videos! Peace and Blessings to you through Jesus Christ!
Thanks for sharing from your heart
What about Barley? I just ground and made barley bread. It was really good.What does it mean in bible.
Barley is also a good lesson in scripture! Coming soon
Hi. Thanks for this video.
Can you help me understand if the fruit from a tree in the first 3 years cannot be eaten?
Thanks.
Interesting. Scripture says to wait three years yet when does that three years begin?
I did wait 3 years for all my trees.
@@TheBiblicalNutritionist Thanks. I thought I read that right. Do you know if you leave the fruit on (depending on tree) or pick and prune? I'm quite new to gardening
Helo, I saw dry figs cover with the gold paper , they were in a plastic bag my friend gave me those dry figs to eat so I begun to eat figs. What does it mean
Thanks for watching Gulfreen Hanif! 👩🏼🌾👍
What about dried figs & dates?
Dried fruit is a good choice. Just watch your portions - it's easy to eat more.
Paid 6.98 for 10 fig
Glad you are trying them.
Good video however the Israel people there are not the biblical ones that came from that region and the same goes for Egyptians. That being said I need to bear fruit
‘Don’t be fruitless fruit tree’
What? When did God "give Israel to the Jewish people"? What does that even mean and where is it in the bible?
You dont know much of fig tree - study that, mail femal fruts. Blosom inwordly flower is friut
Thanks for watching riszi san! 👩🏼🌾

The physical fig tree which JESUS cursed is symbolic and prophetic re: the impending destruction of the Mosaic law and Talmudic/Temple system in 70 A.D. because according to John the baptist, Israel wasn't "bearing fruits worthy of Repentance".
Matthew 3:10 "And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: therefore every tree which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire."
Luke 13:6-9 JESUS tells the parable of the fig tree that for THREE YEARS (JESUS' earthly ministry) the Owner couldn't find any fruit so the husbandman says: ‘Sir, let it alone this year also, until I dig around it and put on manure. Then if it should bear fruit next year, well and good; but if not, you can cut it down.’ ”
Within THAT generation ( within 40 years) GOD did exactly that.
It's a repeat scenario of the historic destruction of Solomon's temple by Nebuchadnezzar for exactly the same reasons- Israel's stubborn and unrepentant rejection of GOD.
You did just gleefully narrate the slaughter of people, which was horrifically creepy
lol
