- True Vine
- Brown: OT, God is the vine pruner (e.g. Flood)
- OT: Vine is a symbol of Israel.
- Usually described as 'barren' = corrupt/lack of faith = Jesus is here to restore fruit/faith
- Equivalent of saying: "I am Judaism" (blasphemy)
- "You bear much fruit, so prove to be my disciples"
- Brown: Didache ("we thank you...for the Holy Vine of David...Jesus Christ")
- Jesus calls himself the TRUE Vine, implying that Israel was a foreshadowing of his coming
- Provides us with fruit/faith and shelter
- The disciples have been pruned & can bear fruit/spread the Word (of God)
