The Lesson from the Fig Tree(A)

28 “Now learn a lesson[a] from the fig tree. When its branches become tender and it produces leaves, you know that summer is approaching. 29 In the same way, when you see these things taking place, you will know that the Son of Man[b] is near, right at the door. 30 I tell all of you[c] with certainty, this generation won’t disappear until all these things take place. 31 Heaven and earth will disappear, but my words will never disappear.”
