The Fig Tree - throughout the OT, the fig tree symbolizes the Jewish nation - the nation that rejected Jesus as Messiah. The nation bore no fruit in His First Coming - and was prophetically destroyed as a nation. But there is hope...For a wonderful synopsis of Fig Tree symbolism through the Bible to this cursing of the tree, you might like this blog post: Think Hebrew.
I had an agnostic once ask me what Jesus' curse of the fig tree meant. This is so significant from a "complete Scripture" perspective, that I want to end today's post with this, in hopes that readers will use the above linked posts and other research to more fully understand and consider this.
Be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you. [Peter 3:15]
