So the Lord expresses his grief for,1 and anger against his people, when they bring forth no fruits, or wild fruits, worse than none, Hos. 9. 16. Ephraim is smitten, their root is dried up. Christ was exceedingly displeased with the fig-tree, and cursed it for its barrenness; it grieves him to the heart when his servants return to him with such complaints as these, We have laboured in vain, we have spent our strength for nought.
