# Fig Tree Withered

Matthew 21: 18-20

> In the morning, as he was returning to the city, he became hungry. And seeing a fig tree by the wayside, he went to it and found nothing on it but only leaves. And he said to it,“May no fruit ever come from you again!” And **the fig tree withered at once**. When the disciples saw it, they marveled, saying, **“How did the fig tree wither at once?”**

Mark 11:14, 20-21

> And he said to it, “May no one ever eat fruit from you again.” And his disciples heard it.

> **As they passed by in the morning**, they saw the fig tree withered away to its roots. And Peter remembered and said to him, “Rabbi, look! The fig tree that you cursed has withered.”
