Personally, I think we should prevent figs from marrying.

Why do your questions remind me of Timecube and the guy who rants endlessly on it?

He was the son of God, and his name was Jesus.
Even though they agree on everything,
except for one moment when he was suffering so much
on the torture stake, when he asked his Father
why he had forsaken him.
As for the fig, it was not all figs that he cursed
but only the tree that didn't produce any when it should have.
The moral of that story is that the more that is given to us
and the more we learn about the true God,
the more is expected of us in return.
We all have a responsibility to give back
some of the good gifts we have received freely from God!
who tells us that there is more pleasure
in giving than receiving!

We don't know, but that tree didn't have any figs, I think...
Matthew 21:18-22
Early in the morning, as he was on his way back to the city, he was hungry. Seeing a fig tree by the road, he went up to it but found nothing on it except leaves. Then he said to it, "May you never bear fruit again!" Immediately the tree withered.

Matthew 24:32-33 and Luke 13:6-10 propose that the fig tree photos Israel. This tree had leaves yet no longer fruit, picturing Israel with its outward “coach of religion” yet its fruitlessness. Luke 13:6-10 shows that God gave Israel 3 years wherein to deliver approximately fruit, however the rustic failed. Christ makes use of the miracle as a lesson in faith, suggesting that it became Israel’s unbelief that introduced approximately her judgment. How hassle-free that's to have “a type of godliness” (2 Tim. 3:5) yet in no way undergo any fruit! Many counterfeit Christians will hear Christ’s “go away from Me, you cursed” (Matt. 25:40-one) because of the indisputable fact that they had “no longer something...yet leaves” (v. 19). In those 3 signs and warning signs, then, Christ shows Israel’s religious blindness, her inward

In spite of some people who would answer this question, the Bible offers stories that are not necessarily to read literally, but contain metaphor, hyperbola, etc... I'm still waiting to see these guys with plucked eyes and cutoff limbs if its easier to enter heaven with missing parts than Gehenna (hell) intact. And if they tell you that don't do things that still offend God and haven't done this then they aren't taking the Bible literally either but want you to. This makes them hypocrites=pharisees thus heaping loads but not lifting a finger to help
Jesus, cursed the tree for not bearing fruit, it did not fulfill what its nature was

Jesus cursed the tree because it didn't have any figs when he wanted some.

Not figs - fig leaves - he wanted to see Eve naked and Adam made her wear that leaf.
