This a parable concerning Israel, v6, The Father is has a fig tree in his vineyard and found no fruit
2)v 7, here the Father talks to the Son,
3) 3 years , I have been seeking fruit ( these 3 yrs are Jesus ministry to Israel )
4) v7, So the Father says cut it down, for it is just taking up space, and Israel will soon be resisting the Holy Spirit in Acts 7.
5) v 8, Here Jesus is replying to the Father, let it alone this year also, till I fertilze it.
6) v 9 , and if after a year it bear fruit good,
7) and if does not,bear fruit, cut down the the fig tree which is Israel.
8) so Israel is set a side, with Acts 7 is what broke the camel back, and sentence was carried OUT in Acts 28:28
