Description
This lovely blue and white cloudscape, with one bare tree, features the biblical parable of the fig tree, with the words of Christ in diagonal lines of type. The tree is about to set forth new spring growth and fills the lower left quadrant. It is shown in silhouette, in the same blue as the text.
The Lesson of the Fig Tree, found in Luke 21, verses 29 through 31, reads like this:
Then Jesus told them this parable:
Think of the fig tree and all the other trees.
When you see their leaves beginning to appear,
You know that summer is near.
In the same way, when you see these things happening,
You will know that the Kingdom of God is about to come.
Luke 21:29-31
