This part highlights God's intervention in clearing the Promised Land of its previous inhabitants to make way for Israel. The conquest of Canaan, as described in the books of Joshua and Judges, involved the displacement of various Canaanite tribes. This action fulfilled God's promise to Abraham (Genesis 15:18-21) and demonstrated His sovereignty and faithfulness. Theologically, it underscores God's judgment against the nations for their iniquity and His covenantal commitment to Israel. and transplanted it.
The act of transplanting the vine signifies God's establishment of Israel in the Promised Land. This imagery suggests careful placement and nurturing, indicating God's intention for Israel to grow and bear fruit in a land "flowing with milk and honey" (Exodus 3:8). The transplanting also foreshadows the New Testament concept of believers being grafted into the spiritual vine, Jesus Christ (John 15:1-5). This connection emphasizes continuity in God's redemptive plan and the call for His people to remain in Him to bear fruit. Persons / Places / Events 1.

What is the meaning of "The True Vine"?
Why did God's vineyard produce only wild grapes?(8) Thou hast brought.--The verb is to be taken as a historic present, "Thou bringest." It is a verb used both of horticulture ( Job 19:10) and, like the word "planted" in the next clause, of breaking up and removing a nomadic encampment, "pulling out the tent-pins, and driving them in.,, The vine (or vineyard), as an emblem of Israel, is so natural and apt that we do not wonder to find it repeated again and again in the Old Testament, and adopted in the New. ProbablyIsaiah 5:1-7 was the parent image, unless the Patriarchal benediction on Joseph (Genesis 49:22) suggested that song. Verses 8-19. - The poet, to excite God's compassion, proceeds to depict Israel as it was and as it is. He adopts the figure of a vine, perhaps suggested to him by the description of Joseph in the dying speech of Jacob ( Genesis 49:22), and carries out his metaphor, in nine consecutive verses, with great beauty and consistency. Isaiah's description of Israel as a vineyard ( Isaiah 5:1-7) is somewhat similar. Verse 8. - Thou hast brought a vine out of Egypt. The history of Israel as a nation begins with the Exodus. The nation was transplanted from Egypt into a soil better fitted for it by the loving hand of God, in order that it might have ample room to grow up and develop itself freely. God "brought it out of Egypt," not merely in the exercise of his ordinary providence over humanity, but by an active exertion of his Almighty power, and a long series of miraculous manifestations, without which the transfer could not have been effected. He then cast out the heathen, and planted it - drove out, that is, before Israel the seven nations of the Hivites, Hittites, Gergashites, Amorites, Canaanites, Perizzites, and Jebusites, and, having driven them out, "planted" in his own people (see Psalm 44:2).
