View of a grapevine that is trying to grow in a field that has not been tended, that is, has not been cleared of stones. Serious field work is necessary in order to have an excellent vineyard.
This field is the opposite of what is described in Isaiah 5:2 “He dug it up and cleared it of stones and planted it with the choicest vines.”
Compare this field with that of a well tended one.
