Then Jesus told them this parable: “Think of the fig tree and all the other trees.
He saw a fig tree by the side of the road and went to it, but found nothing on it except leaves. So he said to the tree, “You will never again bear fruit!” At once the fig tree dried up.
When these things begin to happen, stand up and raise your heads, because your salvation is near.”
When you see their leaves beginning to appear, you know that summer is near.
