Jeremiah 24:2

2. First ripe The fig-tree bears three crops: the first, which ripened in June, being considered specially choice. (Compare Isaiah 28:4, and Hosea 9:10.)

Naughty figs Possibly because decayed, or, more suitably to the scope of the passage, fruit essentially poor, such, for instance, as the sycamore figs, which, unless they are punctured as they ripen, cannot be eaten.
