Hard
Beyond the immediate healing, what theological significance can be drawn from Jesus's cursing of the fig tree (Matthew 21:18-22), especially in light of its unfruitfulness despite having leaves?
A
It primarily demonstrates Jesus's power over nature and serves as a warning against damaging property.
B
It symbolizes God's judgment solely on those who outwardly profess faith but lack inner devotion.
C
It represents Israel's outward appearance of religious observance without producing the fruit of righteousness, foreshadowing the judgment on the temple and the nation's spiritual barrenness, and highlights the importance of genuine faith and works.
D
It is a literal event with no deeper symbolic meaning, simply showcasing Jesus's frustration with hunger.
