Apocalypse of Peter 2
1
And my Father shall set a crown upon my head, that I may judge the quick and the dead and recompense every man according to his work.
2
And ye, take ye the likeness thereof from the fig tree: as soon as the shoot thereof is come forth and the twigs grown, the end of the world shall come.
3
And I, Peter, answered and said unto him: Interpret unto me concerning the fig tree, whereby we shall perceive it, for throughout all its days doth the fig tree send forth shoots, and every year it bringeth forth its fruit for its master. What then meaneth the parable of the fig tree? We know it not.
4
And the Master answered and said unto me: Understandest thou not that the fig tree is the house of Israel?
5
Even as a man that planted a fig tree in his garden, and it brought forth no fruit. And he sought the fruit thereof many years, and when he found it not he said to the keeper of his garden: Root up this fig tree, that it make not our ground to be unfruitful.
6
And the gardener said unto God: Suffer us to clear it of weeds and dig the ground round about it and water it. If then it bear not fruit, we will straightway remove its roots out of the garden and plant another in its stead.
7
Hast thou not understood that the fig tree is the house of Israel? Verily I say unto thee, when the twigs thereof have sprouted forth in the last days, then shall false Christs come and awake expectation, saying: I am the Christ that am now come into the world.
8
And when they shall perceive the wickedness of their deeds they shall turn away after them and deny him whom our fathers did praise, even the first Christ whom they crucified and thereby sinned exceedingly.
9
But this deceiver is not the Christ. And when they reject him he shall slay with the sword, and there shall be many martyrs.
10
Then shall the twigs of the fig tree, that is, the house of Israel, shoot forth: many shall become martyrs at his hand.
11
Enoch and Elias shall be sent to teach them that this is the deceiver who must come into the world and do signs and wonders in order to deceive.
12
And therefore shall they that are slain by his hand be martyrs, and shall be reckoned among the good and righteous martyrs who have pleased God in their life.
