Jerusalem, a Useless Vine. Ezekiel 15:1-8
PROPHECIES REGARDING ISRAEL, Ezekiel 1-24
3. Israel Past and Present, Ezekiel 6-24
JERUSALEM, A USELESS VINE
And the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
“Son of man, how is the wood of the grapevine (Israel) better than any wood of a branch which is among the trees of the forest? [Psa_80:8-13; Jer_2:21]
Can wood be taken from it to make any object? Or can men take a peg from it on which to hang any vessel?
If it has been thrown into the fire for fuel, and the fire has consumed both of its ends and the middle section has been charred, is it suitable or useful for anything?
Notice this, even when it was complete, it was not useful and was not made into anything. How much less, after the fire has burned [part of] it and [the remainder of] it is charred, can it still be made into anything?
Therefore, thus says the Lord GOD, ‘Like the wood of the grapevine among the trees of the forest, which I have given to the fire for fuel, so have I given up the people of Jerusalem;
and I set My face against them. Though they have come out of the fire, yet the fire will consume them. Then you will know [without any doubt] that I am the LORD, when I set My face against them.
I will make the land desolate (ruined, deserted), because they have acted unfaithfully [through their idolatry],’ says the Lord GOD.”
