以西結書 15:6-7 RCUVTS

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Ezekiel 15:1-8

This final word on the results of reprobation leads naturally to the part of the prophecy dealing with the reason thereof. This reason is first set forth under two general figures; second, in the form of a riddle; third, as an answer-to a false excuse; and, finally, in a great lament. The figures were familiar because they had been used by former prophets. The first figure was of the vine. Its uselessness as a tree was declared. It provided no wood which men could work, not even a pin on... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 15:6-8

‘Therefore thus says the Lord Yahweh, “As the vine trees among the trees of the forest, which I have given to the fire for fuel, so have I given the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and I will set my face against them. They will go forth from the fire, but the fire will devour them. And you will know that I am Yahweh when I set my face against them. And I will make the land desolate, because they have committed a trespass,” says the Lord Yahweh.’ The reference to Jerusalem is now made clear. They are... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 15:1-8

Ezekiel 15. The Useless Vine (Jerusalem) is Doomed to Destruction.— We have seen some of the reasons why the illusion of the inviolability of Jerusalem was so hard to slay (chs. 12f.). Here we meet with another. The people believed themselves to be the darlings of Yahweh. Had not the great Isaiah (ch. 5) compared them to a vine, which had enjoyed His special nurture and care? Good, says Ezekiel, but remember how useless the vine is; why you cannot even make a peg out of its wood. While, as... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Ezekiel 15:6

Either thus, When the vine is, as the wild trees of the forest, barren and fruitless, it is less worth than the forest tree; so are you, O house of Israel, in my account: or else, As trees of the forest are for the fire in all the less valuable parts of them, so are all the branches and body of the barren vine, which you are, O Jerusalemites. I have given; designed and doomed for food to the fire. So will I give the inhabitants of Jerusalem; for by their sins they have kindled a fire, which... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Ezekiel 15:7

I will look upon them with an angry and displeased countenance, which is enough to destroy them, or to fill them with terrors. This phrase occurs Ezekiel 14:8, which see. My wrath shall kindle a fire among them. They shall go out from one fire; either shift themselves, and flee from one evil, which as fire consumed them; or else be cast by others, by their enemies, out of one evil into another; from a less which troubled them to a greater which devours them, 1 Kings 19:17; Jeremiah... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Ezekiel 15:1-8

ISRAEL COMPARED TO THE USELESS WOOD OF A WILD VINE (Chap. 15)EXEGETICAL NOTES.—In the last chapter the prophet had announced that God would not spare Jerusalem for the sake of the few righteous therein. In this chapter he destroys another refuge in which they trusted. He shows how His people Israel have no native superiority over other nations, no such intrinsic value as would entitle them to be considered as a special case. They may have rested secure in the thought that Israel is compared to... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 15:1-8

Chapter 15Now, in chapter 15:The word of the LORD came unto me saying, Son of man, What is the vine tree more than any tree ( Ezekiel 15:1-2 ),Now you remember God said concerning the nation Israel in Isaiah, chapter 5, that God had planted a pleasant vineyard, the nation of Israel. He put a hedge around it, built walls around it, fenced it in, built a winepress therein and He came at the time of harvest that He might partake of the fruit from His vine. But, behold, it had wild grapes. "What... read more

Joseph Sutcliffe

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Ezekiel 15:1-8

REFLECTIONS. This chapter follows in connection with the preseding, and demonstrates the failure of the various methods of providence to bring the jews back to the covenant of God; and comes to the ultimatum of burning Jerusalem, as the useless wood of the vine. Horace employs the like figure of the useless wood of the figtree, as cited in Isaiah 44:9. The Israelites had been to God as a choice vine, brought out of Egypt, whose beauties are sung in the eightieth psalm. The men of Judah,... read more

Ezekiel 15:1-8What is the vine tree more than any tree.The worthless vine doomed for the fireFounding on old similitudes, the prophet assumes that Israel is the vine, and compares it as a tree or as wood with the other trees of the forest. It is as wood that it is put in comparison with the trees. He is studiously silent in regard to the fruit of the vine. This which gave the vine its preeminence (Judges 9:13), cannot be touched upon, for it does not exist. It is the wood of the vine only that... read more

Eze 15:6 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; As the vine tree among the trees of the forest, which I have given to the fire for fuel, so will I give the inhabitants of Jerusalem. Ver. 6. As the vine tree. ] Adaptat parabolam. Here beginneth the apodosis or application of the parable. That which is not for fruit is for the fire. Salt which hath lost the savour is thrown out. So will I give the inhabitants of Jerusalem. ] Those sinners in Zion; Isa 33:14 those sacrificing Sodomites; Isa 1:10 I... read more
