Contextual Overview
1 And ye word of ye Lord came vnto me, saying, 2 Sonne of man, what commeth of the vine tree aboue all other trees? and of the vine braunch, which is among the trees of ye forest? 3 Shall wood bee taken thereof to doe any worke? or wil men take a pin of it to hang any vessel thereon? 4 Behold, it is cast in the fire to be consumed: the fire consumeth both the endes of it, and the middes of it is burnt. Is it meete for any worke? 5 Behold, when it was whole, it was meete for no worke: how much lesse shall it bee meete for any worke, when the fire hath consumed it, and it is burnt? 6 Therefore thus sayth the Lorde God, As the vine tree, that is among the trees of the forest, which I haue giuen to the fire to be consumed, so will I giue the inhabitants of Ierusalem. 7 And I will set my face against them: they shall go out from one fire, and another fire shall consume them: and ye shall know, that I am the Lord, when I set my face against them, 8 And when I make the lande waste, because they haue greatly offended, saith the Lord God.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying. The destruction of Jerusalem had been represented under various types and similes before, as of a siege, and a sharp razor; and here of a fruitless and useless vine, only fit for the fire; which was delivered out by a spirit of prophecy. The Targum calls it the word of prophecy, as usual.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
CHAPTER XV
The Jewish nation, about to be destroyed by the Chaldeans,
compared to a barren vine which is fit for nothing but to be
cast into the fire, 1-8.
