Jeremiah 24:2
2 One basket had very good figs, like first-ripe figs, but the other basket had very bad figs, so bad that they could not be eaten.
Hosea 9:10
10 Like grapes in the wilderness,
I found Israel.
Like the first fruit on the fig tree
in its first season,
I saw your fathers.
yBut they came to Baal-peor
and consecrated themselves to the thing of shame,
and became detestable like the thing they loved.
Micah 7:1
Wait for the God of Salvation
1 Woe is me! For I have become
as when the summer fruit has been gathered,
as when the grapes have been gleaned:
lthere is no cluster to eat,
no first-ripe fig that my soul desires.
Nahum 3:12
12 All your fortresses are like fig trees
with jfirst-ripe figs—
if shaken they fall
into the mouth of the eater.
