Luke 23:31 (b) This is a figurative way of saying that if Israel was so rebellious and so hostile when the Lord JESUS was with them, what would they be like when CHRIST was gone from them. When they were free to read the Scriptures and to worship in their temple (all of which is compared to a green tree), what would they be like when they had no temple, and their enemies came in like a flood, and they had no Scriptures from which to read. This time is compared to the season of a dry tree.
