Ezekiel 15:6 (ESV)
Therefore thus says the Lord GOD: Like the wood of the vine among the trees of the forest, which I have given to the fire for fuel, so have I given up the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
Israel was the vine planted among the trees of the nations and peoples to bring the word of the Lord into the wilderness of the world. Like Adam in the Garden, they acted without faith in God and in disobedience to that word.
Jesus would be the true vine whose branches would bear the fruit of the Spirit, fulfilling the Adam’s charge to work the ground of the earth, to be fruitful and multiply. His word has come in the wilderness of the world and will fulfill His purpose.
