[

Sycamore more properly sycomore (
Heb .
shikmoth and shikmim ,
Gr .
sycomoros ),
a tree which in its general character resembles the fig -
tree ,
while its leaves resemble those of the mulberry ;
hence it is called the fig -
mulberry (
Ficus sycomorus ).
At Jericho ,
Zacchaeus climbed a sycomore -
tree to see Jesus as he passed by (
Luke 19 :
4 ).
This tree was easily destroyed by frost (
Ps .
78 :
47 ),
and therefore it is found mostly in the "
vale " (
1 Kings 10 :
27 ;
2 Chr .
1 :
15 :
in both passages the R .
V .
has properly "
lowland "),
i .
e .,
the "
low country ,"
the shephelah ,
where the climate is mild .
Amos (
7 :
14 )
refers to its fruit ,
which is of an inferior character ;
so also probably Jeremiah (
24 :
2 ).
It is to be distinguished from our sycamore (
the Acer pseudo -
platanus ),
which is a species of maple often called a plane -
tree .
