12 The next day as they were leaving Bethany, Jesus was hungry. 13 Seeing in the distance a fig tree in leaf, he went to find out if it had any fruit. When he reached it, he found nothing but leaves, because it was not the season for figs. 14 Then he said to the tree, “May no one ever eat fruit from you again.”
Why would God curse a tree for not carrying fruit out of season?
Great question! As for the out of season, there were leaves on the trees but no fruit, I think there was an expectation of the first budding fruits for Passover. Moreover this is symbolic of looking 'alive' but being 'dead', it really comes together when you take the whole chapter onto account, Jesus drives out the money changers in the temple too this chapter, He is calling out bad stuff and showing us it will not work in His Kingdom.
Wow! That's amazing! God legitimately has the coolest stuff going on!!!
The Abrahamic god is extremely uninteresting. He acts like a petty little child all the time and has not a single original idea.
Would you be willing to pick an instance for discussion? Edit: and by what comparison, if you please.
