EZEKIEL 19:12 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“But she was plucked up in fury, she was cast down to the ground, and the east wind dried up her fruit: her strong rods were broken and withered; the fire consumed them.”
But the vine is plucked up in fury and cast down to the ground, the east wind dries up its fruit, and its strong stems are stripped and withered, consumed by fire. The violent destruction of the vine represents the Babylonian siege and destruction of Jerusalem, with the east wind functioning as a symbol of the devastating force from the east. The withering and burning establish complete horticultural devastation.
