Exegesis
The accusative noun sygēn {συκῆν | sykē̂n} ‘fig tree’ is specified by the prepositional phrase apo makróthen {ἀπὸ μακρόθεν | apó makróthen} ‘from afar’ and the participle échousan {ἔχουσαν | échousan} ‘having’, underscoring its leafy state.
In context — Mark 11:13
And seeing a fig tree from a distance with leaves, He approached it to ascertain whether He might find anything on it; and upon reaching it, He found nothing except leaves, for it was not the season for figs.
