10 'Your mother was 1like a vine in your vineyard, Planted by the waters; It was fruitful and full of branches Because of abundant waters.
11 'And it had 2strong branches fit for scepters of rulers, And its 3height was raised above * the clouds So that it was seen in its height with the mass of its branches.
12 'But it was 4plucked up in fury; It was 5cast down to the ground; And the 6east wind dried up its fruit. Its 7strong branch was torn off So that it withered; The fire consumed it.
13 'And now it is planted in the 8wilderness, In a dry and thirsty land.
14 'And 9fire has gone out from its branch; It has consumed its shoots and fruit, So that there is not in it a strong branch, A scepter to rule.' " This is a lamentation, and has become a lamentation.

Ezekiel 19:10-14 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO EZEKIEL 19

The subject matter of this chapter is a lamentation for the princes and people of the Jews, on account of what had already befallen them, and what was yet to come, Eze 19:1. The mother of the princes is compared to a lioness, and they to lions; who, one after another, were taken and carried captive, Eze 19:2-9; again, their mother is compared to a vine, and they to branches and rods for sceptres, destroyed by an east wind, and consumed by fire, Eze 19:10-14.
