john 15:1 I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. - Free Bible Online

      Joh 15:1-27. DISCOURSE AT THE SUPPER TABLE CONTINUED.

      1-8. The spiritual oneness of Christ and His people, and His relation to them as the Source of all their spiritual life and fruitfulness, are here beautifully set forth by a figure familiar to Jewish ears (Isa 5:1, &c.).
      I am the true vine--of whom the vine of nature is but a shadow.
      my Father is the husbandman--the great Proprietor of the vineyard, the Lord of the spiritual kingdom. (It is surely unnecessary to point out the claim to supreme divinity involved in this).
