If it bears fruit The phrase "bears fruit" is central to understanding the parable of the barren fig tree. In the Greek, the word for "bears" is "ποιήσῃ" (poiēsē), which implies action and productivity. The concept of bearing fruit is a recurring biblical metaphor for living a life that reflects God's will and produces good works. In the context of the New Testament, fruitfulness is often associated with the evidence of a transformed life through the Holy Spirit, as seen in Galatians 5:22-23. Historically, fig trees were common in Israel and symbolized prosperity and blessing. Thus, the expectation of fruitfulness is not just agricultural but spiritual, calling believers to examine their lives for evidence of spiritual growth and maturity. next year fine But if not you can cut it down Greek Ifκἂν (kan) Conjunction Strong's 2579: And if, even if, even, at least.
