Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Of foreign derivation Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G4808 (συκῆ • syke): This Greek term is used in the New Testament to refer to the fig tree. It appears in passages such as Matthew 21:19, where Jesus curses the barren fig tree. • G4810 (σῦκον • sykon): This Greek term refers to the fig fruit itself. It is used in contexts where the fruit of the fig tree is specifically mentioned. The fig tree, with its rich symbolism and frequent biblical references, serves as a powerful image of both blessing and judgment, reflecting the spiritual and material conditions of God's people throughout the biblical narrative. Usage: The term תְּאֵן (te'en) is used in the Hebrew Bible to refer to the fig tree or its fruit. It appears in various contexts, often symbolizing prosperity, peace, and divine blessing, as well as judgment and desolation when absent. Context: The Hebrew word תְּאֵן (te'en) is commonly translated as "fig" in English. The fig tree is one of the earliest cultivated plants and holds significant cultural and religious symbolism in the Bible. It is frequently mentioned in the context of agricultural abundance and prosperity. For instance, in 1 Kings 4:25, the peaceful and prosperous reign of Solomon is described with the imagery of every man sitting under his vine and fig tree: "Throughout Solomon’s days, Judah and Israel dwelt securely, from Dan to Beersheba, each man under his own vine and his own fig tree." The fig tree also appears in prophetic literature, often symbolizing the nation of Israel. In Jeremiah 8:13, the absence of figs is a metaphor for divine judgment: "I will take away their harvest, declares the LORD. There will be no grapes on the vine, no figs on the tree, and the leaf will wither. What I have given them will be taken away." In the New Testament, the fig tree continues to hold symbolic meaning. Jesus uses the fig tree in parables and teachings, such as in Matthew 24:32-33, where the budding of the fig tree is a sign of the approaching summer, symbolizing the nearness of the kingdom of God.
