As the true Vine of the vineyard of Israel, He portrays Himself as the Lord of the “true Israel”—all those who would come to Him in faith, because “…not all who are descended from Israel are Israel” (Romans 9:6).
Kama Mzabibu wa kweli wa shamba la mizabibu la Israeli, anajionyesha mwenyewe kama Bwana wa "Israeli ya kweli" wale wote watakaokuja kwake imani, kwa sababu "... si wote ambao wanatoka Israeli ambao ni Israeli" (Warumi 9: 6).
