John 15:1–11 (ESV)
John 15:1.
“I am the true vine, and my Father is the vinedresser.
15:1 This is the last of Jesus’ seven I am sayings in this Gospel (see note on 6:35).
True contrasts Jesus with OT Israel (see previous note), reinforcing John’s theme that Jesus is the true Israel.
The vinedresser refers back to Isaiah’s first vineyard song, where God is depicted as tending his vineyard, only to be rewarded with wild grapes (Isa.
5:1–7; cf.
Ps. 80:8–9).
The fruitfulness of those in Christ contrasts with the fruitlessness of Israel.
The most basic point of the imagery is the obvious dependence of branches on the vine for their continued life.
The allegory of the vine brings before us the importance of fruitfulness in the Christian life and the truth that this is the result, not of human achievement, but of abiding in Christ.
