# Israel is a luxuriant vine that produces his fruit
|

Israel is spoken of as a vine that was very fruitful. For a while the people prospered and were strong. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])

# a luxuriant vine
|
|
|
|
This vine produces more fruit than normal.
|
|
|
|
# As his fruit increased ... As his land produced more
|
