Ezekiel 15:2 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

The house of Israel is often compared to a vine, which when barren or fruitless is very contemptible and unprofitable. This the prophet minds them of to humble them, and awaken them to fruitfulness; Will you boast yourselves of this? Than a branch which is among the trees of the forest; one single branch of a tree in the forest is of more use and worth than the whole vine tree is, except for its fruit.

Ezekiel 15:2

2 Son of man, What is the vine tree more than any tree, or than a branch which is among the trees of the forest?
