A fig tree represented peace and cleansing. There was a high priest, Joshua who was standing before God filthy in soiled dress. The authorities said the man should not be standing before God. The Lord rebukes choosing to save the priest. He was a brand picked out of the fire. The iniquity was taken away. The Lord reminds us we need to be cleansed. In God's throne room we are commanded not to sin, but if we do we are to have an advocate. Our advocate is Jesus, who is prophet, priest and king. We see the suffering servant is the branch; the iniquity of sin is removed. We are to invite our neighbors for a feast with Jesus so we may build a relationship with them that they may acknowledge and worship Christ, the advocator.
