The parable of the budding fig tree (or any tree)



Does this parable come from Jesus or from the Evangelists? 
What is the possible meaning of it? 
According to this parable, Jesus seems to be a strong apocalypticism advocate. Do you agree? 
Or, some think that this parable is not from Jesus and that it comes from the Evangelists. 
Should we expect the end of the world coming soon? Why or why not? 
What is the role of apocalyptic literature that deals with “last things”?
