Even when it was whole, it could not be made useful. How much less can it ever be useful when the fire has consumed it and charred it! Context 5“Behold, while it is intact, it is not made into anything. How much less, when the fire has consumed it and it is charred, can it still be made into anything! 6“Therefore, thus says the Lord GOD, ‘As the wood of the vine among the trees of the forest, which I have given to the fire for fuel, so have I given up the inhabitants of Jerusalem; 7and I set My face against them. Though they have come out of the fire, yet the fire will consume them. Then you will know that I am the LORD, when I set My face against them. 8‘Thus I will make the land desolate, because they have acted unfaithfully,’” declares the Lord GOD.
