**The vine ... -**The image is grounded on a well-known figure [Psalms 80:8](../../../kjv/psalms/80/8); [Isaiah 5](../../../kjv/isaiah/5). The comparison is not between the vine and other trees, but between the wood of the vine and the wood of other trees.

**Behold, it is cast into the fire -**The wood is in itself useless for any purpose; but what if it have been cast into the fire, and half burned, what of it then?

**They shall go out ... -**Rather, they have gone forth from the fire, and the fire shall devour them. The condition of the people is here depicted. The people of Israel - as a whole and as separate kingdoms - had become worthless. The branch torn from the living stem had truly been cast into the fire, which had devoured both ends of it; what remained was a brand plucked from the burning. Those who had escaped the general calamity were reserved for a like fate. Compare [John 15:6](../../../kjv/john/15/6).
