Justin Taylor is doing a series that summarizes what happened each day of the week the Lord Jesus Christ was crucified. For example, today’s post for Tuesday reads:
Jesus’ disciples see the withered fig tree on their return to Jerusalem from Bethany
When the disciples saw it, they marveled, saying,
“How did the fig tree wither at once?”
And Jesus answered them,
“Truly, I say to you, if you have faith and do not doubt, you will not only do what has been done to the fig tree, but even if you say to this mountain, ‘Be taken up and thrown into the sea,’ it will happen. And whatever you ask in prayer, you will receive, if you have faith.”
As they passed by in the morning, they saw the fig tree withered away to its roots. And Peter remembered and said to him,
“Rabbi, look! The fig tree that you cursed has withered.”
