Bible verse
Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its branches become tender and sprout leaves, you know that summer is near.
Mark 13:28 · BSB
The verses around it, from Mark 13.
24 But in those days, after that tribulation: ‘The sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light;
25 the stars will fall from the sky, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken.’
26 At that time they will see the Son of Man coming in the clouds with great power and glory.
27 And He will send out the angels to gather His elect from the four winds, from the ends of the earth to the ends of heaven.
28 Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its branches become tender and sprout leaves, you know that summer is near.
29 So also, when you see these things happening, know that He is near, right at the door.
30 Truly I tell you, this generation will not pass away until all these things have happened.
31 Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will never pass away.
32 No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.
