Mark 11:14

And Jesus answered and said unto it, No man eat fruit of thee hereafter for ever. And his disciples heard it.

Cross-reference

In Matthew 3:10, John warns that every tree not bearing good fruit is cut down — the same principle Jesus enacts on the fig tree.

In Matthew 7:19, Jesus teaches that unfruitful trees are thrown into fire — directly parallel to the curse on the fig tree.

In Matthew 21:19, Jesus curses the fig tree with the same words — 'May no fruit ever come from you' — and it withers immediately.

John 15:6 Parallel

In John 15:2, every branch not bearing fruit is taken away — the same principle of fruitlessness leading to removal as the fig tree curse.

Hebrews 6:8 Parallel

Hebrews 6:8 describes land bearing thorns being cursed and burned — directly parallels the fig tree's fruitlessness leading to curse.

In Matthew 12:33-35, Jesus says a tree is known by its fruit — the fig tree's leaves without fruit reveals false profession facing judgment.

Isaiah 5:5 Allusion

In Isaiah 5:5, God threatens to remove the vineyard's hedge — a similar judgment on unfruitfulness as Jesus' curse on the fig tree.

Isaiah 5:6 Allusion

In Isaiah 5:6, God declares the vineyard will be laid waste with no pruning — echoing the barrenness Jesus commands on the fig tree.
