Ezekiel 15 is the fifteenth chapter of the Book of Ezekiel in the Hebrew Bible or the Old Testament of the Christian Bible. This book contains the prophecies attributed to the prophet/priest Ezekiel, and is one of the Books of the Prophets.[1] This chapter records a parable about the fate of the "useless" [2] grapevine as a symbol of the nation of Israel at that time.[3] In the New King James Version, this chapter is sub-titled "The Outcast Vine";[4] according to commentator Andrew Davidson, it records "the uselessness of the wood of the vine".[5]
