Hebrew Music Monday ✡ "A Vine-Tree Among the Trees" - ISRAEL365

Therefore, so said the Lord God: As a vine-tree among the trees of the forest, which I have given over to the fire to be consumed, have I placed the dwellers of Jerusalem. EZEKIEL (15:6) לָכֵן כֹּה אָמַר אֲדֹנָי יְ-הוִה כַּאֲשֶׁר עֵץ הַגֶּפֶן בְּעֵץ הַיַּעַר אֲשֶׁר נְתַתִּיו לָאֵשׁ לְאָכְלָה--כֵּן נָתַתִּי אֶת יֹשְׁבֵי יְרוּשָׁלִָם יחזקאל טו:ו la-khayn ko a-mar a-do-nai e-lo-heem ka-a-sher aytz ha-ge-fen b'-aytz ha-ya-ar a-sher n'-ta-teev la-aysh l'-okh-la kayn na-ta-tee et yo-sh'-vay y'-ru-sha-la-yim

Today's Israel Inspiration Grapes are one of the seven biblical species of the Land of Israel and teach us a vital life lesson. Just like grapes must be totally crushed in order to produce quality wine, it is through our trials and tribulations that we can reach our highest potential. In today's verse, Ezekiel prophesied that the inhabitants of Jerusalem would be destroyed just as a vine that no longer produces grapes is burned for fuel. The message of the grape, however, is that the pain and anguish will eventually bring out the best in them, and inspire them to return to the Almighty. Time and again, Israel's enemies rise up to destroy, yet the Jewish nation attaches itself more deeply to the Land with renewed faith. Now is the time to plant roots in the Holy Land and come closer to the Almighty.
