Ezekiel 15:5
Thia KJV (พระคัมภีร์ภาษาไทยฉบับ KJV)
ข้อนี้หมายความว่าอะไร?
The verse is from Ezekiel and speaks about a vine that, even when whole, wasn't useful for any work. Once burned, it becomes even less useful. The key message is that if something is not useful in its best state, it won't be useful after it's damaged.
อธิบายสำหรับเด็ก
Imagine you have a toy that's not very fun to play with even when it's brand new. Now, if the toy gets broken, it won't be any fun at all. This is like the vine Ezekiel talks about—useless even when it's good, and even more useless when it's broken.
