Nahum 2:13 continues the judgment on Nineveh with burning chariots and devouring young lions, complementing the fall of fortresses.

In Habakkuk 1:10, the Babylonians scoff at fortified cities and capture them easily — same theme of fortresses falling.

In Revelation 6:13, stars fall like figs shaken from a tree — the same simile as fortresses falling like ripe figs here.

In Isaiah 28:4, Ephraim's glory is like ripe figs quickly swallowed — same simile of easy plunder.
