Settings

6 Therefore thus says the Lord GOD: 1Like the wood of the vine among the trees of the forest, 2which I have given to the fire for fuel, so have I given up the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
7 3And I will set my face against them. Though 4they escape from the fire, the fire shall yet consume them, 5and you will know that I am the LORD, 6when I set my face against them.
8 7And I will make the land desolate, because 8they have acted faithlessly, declares the Lord GOD."

Ezekiel 15:6-8 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO EZEKIEL 15

The destruction of Jerusalem is again prophesied of in this chapter, and is set forth under the simile of a vine tree, which, for its uselessness, is committed to the fire. The simile is in Eze 15:1-5; the application of it in Eze 15:6-8.
