 2Every branch in me not bearing fruit, he taketh it away; and every one that beareth fruit, he cleanseth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.
 3Already ye are clean, because of the word which I have spoken to you.
 4Abide in me, and I in you: as the branch cannot bear fruit from itself, unless it abide in the vine; so neither [can] ye, unless ye abide in me.
 5I am the vine, ye are the branches. He that abideth in me, and I in him, he beareth much fruit; because apart from me ye can do nothing.
 6If one abide not in me, he is cast out as the branch, and is dried up: and they gather it, and cast [it] into the fire, and it burneth.
 7If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask what ye will, and it shall come to pass for you.

• {v.9-16} In the parable, which occupies verses 9-16, He set forth with great clearness the exact position of things at that moment. It reads like a continuation of the historical statements made in 2 Chron. 36:15, 16. There it was God appealing by His “messengers, rising up betimes and sending;” (2 Chron. 36:15) but all were mocked and misused until “there was no remedy,” (2 Chron. 36:16) and “He brought upon them the king of the Chaldees” (2 Chron. 36:17).
