The parable of the barren fig tree (13:6-9) asks if we are bearing good fruit. Are you?
Jesus continues to confront those who believe the rules are more important than the ministry (13: 10-17). have you noticed that this issue keeps popping up in the Gospel? How often does this issue appear in your daily living?
Notice that it is Pharisees who come to warn Jesus about King Herod wanting to kill him (13:31). After the hard time Jesus has given Pharisees, this casts them in a different light.A reminder that we need to be careful when we speak of groups of people as if everyone is the same.
