Figs are high in natural sugars, minerals and soluble fiber. Figs are rich in minerals including potassium, calcium, magnesium, iron and copper and are a good source of antioxidant vitamins A and K that contribute to health and wellness. You can also buy a fig tree online and grow one inside your home so you can have fresh figs to cook with no matter where you live!

At some unspecified point after this, the serpent tempted Eve to eat the fruit. “When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it. Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they realized they were naked; so they sewed fig leaves together and made coverings for themselves.” (Gen. 3:6-7).

The word fruit appears in Hebrew as פֶּ֫רִי (pərî ). What kind of fruit was forbidden?

Immediately after partaking of the forbidden fruit, Adam and Eve realized they were naked and sewed fig leaves together to hide their nakedness. On this basis, some have pointed to the fig as being the object that earned Adam and Eve their banishment from Eden. The most famous depiction of the fig as the forbidden fruit was painted by Michelangelo in his masterpiece fresco on the Sistine Chapel ceiling. (I grabbed this info from this article)
