Apologetics Bible
Read Scripture with the original-language, translation, commentary, and apologetics layers kept close to the text.
Scripture-first study surface. Data layers support reading; they do not replace prayer, context, humility, or the text itself.
Four study layers kept near the text.
The reader keeps Scripture first, then brings original-language notes, translation comparison, commentary witness, and apologetics exposition into an ordered study path without letting the tools outrank the passage.
Hebrew and Greek source shelves sit near the passage with transliteration and morphology notes where the source data is available.
A broad translation-comparison set brings KJV, ASV, YLT, BSB, Darby, and many other renderings near the verse so wording differences can be studied carefully.
Historical witness notes appear where source coverage is available, helping readers compare older interpreters without replacing the passage.
Apologetics exposition helps trace how passages function in canonical argument, what doctrinal claims they touch, and how themes connect across the 66 books.
Open a passage.
Read the text first, then compare available translations, words, witness notes, and defense notes.
Type a Bible reference, then jump into the reader.
Choose a layer, then the reader opens that study surface near the passage.
Summary first. Then the depth.
Each chapter starts with the passage, then keeps the supporting study layers close enough to check without replacing the text.
Book framing comes before the notes: title, placement, authorship questions, and why the passage matters.
The chapter text stays first. Supporting source shelves sit after the passage.
Original language, translation comparison, commentary witness, and apologetics exposition stay grouped around the passage when the supporting data is available.
Start with the passage. Use the tools after the text.
The reader keeps translations, source shelves, original-language data, and verse-linked notes close to Scripture. Open Bible Data for the public shelves, or bring a careful question to DaveAI later.
Read the Word before every witness.
Open the chapter itself first. Summaries, verse waypoints, ancient witnesses, cross-references, and the citation apparatus are here to serve the Word YHWH has given, never to outrank it.
The Bible is the authority here. Notes, languages, witnesses, and defenses sit below the text as servants of faithful study.

- Primary Witness Text: And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, Son of man, What is the vine tree more than any tree, or than a branch which is among the trees of the forest? Shall wood be taken thereof to do any work? or will men take a pin of it to hang any vessel thereon? Behold, it is cast into the fire for fuel; the fire devoureth both the ends of it, and the midst of it is burned. Is it meet for any work? Behold, when it was whole, it was meet for no work: how much less shall it be meet yet for any work, when the fire hath devoured it, and it is burned? Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; As the vine tree among the trees of the forest, which I have given to the fire for fuel, so will I give the inhabitants of Jerusalem. And I will set my face against them; they shall go out from one fire, and another fire shall devour them; and ye shall know that I am the LORD, when I set my face against them. And I will make the land desolate, because they have committed a trespass, saith the Lord GOD.

Ezekiel prophesied c. 593-571 BC among the exiles in Babylon. His visions of God's throne-chariot (merkavah), the valley of dry bones, and the eschatological Temple make him the most visually arresting of the major prophets.
Ezekiel 36:26-27 ("I will give you a new heart") is the OT's clearest anticipation of regeneration — the divine replacement of a heart of stone with one of flesh, and the indwelling Spirit producing covenantal obedience. Jesus references this prophecy when rebuking Nicodemus for not understanding the new birth (John 3:10).

Ezekiel 15:1
Hebrew
וַיְהִי דְבַר־יְהוָה אֵלַי לֵאמֹֽר׃vayehiy-devar-yehvah-'elay-le'mor
KJV: And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
AKJV: And the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
ASV: And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,
YLT: And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying:
Exposition: Ezekiel 15:1 emphasizes a key movement in the chapter's argument. In KJV form, the text reads: 'And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,'. Read in canonical context, the verse supports the coherence of biblical revelation by linking doctrine, narrative, and covenantal meaning.
Apologetics Notes
- Scientific Correlation: This verse is suitable for cumulative-case reasoning in apologetics: historical context, textual stability, and worldview coherence are evaluated together rather than in isolation.
- Hebrew Grammar: A close Hebrew reading should attend lexical range, clause flow, and discourse function in context; these controls reduce over-reading and preserve authorial intent.
- Historical Evidence: Historically, this verse is interpreted within the received canonical tradition, where manuscript continuity and early community usage support stable transmission and meaning.
Ezekiel 15:2
Hebrew
בֶּן־אָדָם מַה־יִּֽהְיֶה עֵץ־הַגֶּפֶן מִכָּל־עֵץ הַזְּמוֹרָה אֲשֶׁר הָיָה בַּעֲצֵי הַיָּֽעַר׃ven-'adam-mah-yiheyeh-'etz-hagefen-mikhal-'etz-hazemvorah-'asher-hayah-va'atzey-haya'ar
KJV: Son of man, What is the vine tree more than any tree, or than a branch which is among the trees of the forest?
AKJV: Son of man, what is the vine tree more than any tree, or than a branch which is among the trees of the forest?
ASV: Son of man, what is the vine-tree more than any tree, the vine-branch which is among the trees of the forest?
YLT: `Son of man, What is the vine-tree more than any tree? The vine-branch that hath been, Among trees of the forest?
Commentary WitnessEzekiel 15:2Quoted commentary witness
Commentary Witness
Ezekiel 15:2
Verse 2 What is the vine tree more than any tree - It is certain that the vine is esteemed only on account of its fruit. In some countries, it is true, it grows to a considerable size and thickness: but, even then, it is not of a sufficient density to work into furniture. But whatever may be said of the stock of the vine, it is the branch that the prophet speaks of here; and I scarcely know the branch of any tree in the forest more useless than is the branch of the vine. Out of it who can even make a pin to drive into a mud wall, or hang any vessel on? A vine would never be cultivated for the sake of its wood; it is really worthless but as it bears fruit. What is Israel? Good for nothing, but as God influenced them to bring forth fruit to his glory. But now that they have ceased to be fruitful, they are good for nothing, but, like a withered branch of the vine, to be burnt.
