SCRIPTURE

"And he was teaching in one of the synagogues on the sabbath day. And behold, a woman that had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years; and she was bowed together, and could in no wise lift herself up." — Luke 13:10-11 (ASV)

And he was teaching in one of the synagogues on the sabbath. And, behold, there was a woman which had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and was bowed together, and could in no wise lift up herself.

If she was there when Christ was speaking about the fruitless fig tree, I feel pretty certain that she said, "That must mean me; I am the fruitless fig tree," but the Master did not mean her; he had other words and more cheering news for her.
