Jesus' Crankiness

in jesus •  8 years ago 

Jesus in Mark becomes cranky when hungry, cursing the fruitless fig tree. Imagine if where he fasted for 40 days had been a fig tree farm. A disaster for the fig trees. No wonder he defeated the devil after the fasting. GO AWAY! since i m freaking hungry. and i want real food not just some imaginary food made of stone. bowing down for the glory of this world? if u make me speak another word i rather eat u. ( the devil runs away...)

Sometimes when I want to roast a hot dog, I go out into the woods and find a thin sapling to use for a roasting stick. I'm not angry at the tree, I'm using a resource for a purpose.

Jesus used the fruitless (useless) fig tree to make a memorable point to his followers about the importance that they be useful and bear fruit

Give the mileage He got out of that demonstration over the next 2000 years I'd say that fig tree was put to pretty good use.

Right... I was trying to underline how humane Jesus sometimes was according to Mark... which is good because we can relate to him. Thanks for a genuine comment!
