Paradiesfeigenbaum, with large leaves, is apparently meant), Numbers 13:23, 20:5 Deuteronomy 8:8, etc., also a fig, the fruit, 2 Kings 20:7. (The etymology is unknown, for it can neither be suitably derived from the root אוּן, nor from תָּאַן; Arab. قأن Conj. III.). “To sit under one’s vine and under one’s fig tree” is said of those who lead a tranquil and happy life, 1 Kings 5:5; Zechariah 3:10; Micah 4:4. See Celsii Hierobot. t. ii. p. 368-399.
