Son of man, What is the vine tree more than any tree? What is the branch among the trees of the forest? Shall wood be taken from it to do a work? Will men take a peg from it to hang any vessel thereon? Behold, it is cast into the fire for fuel; the fire devours both the ends of it, and the midst of it is burned. Is it meet for any work? read more.
Behold, when it was whole, it was meet for no work; how much less afterward shall it be meet for any work when the fire has devoured it, and it is burned?
