Tree of shame

Judah and the harlot city of Jerusalem have gone after idols, worshiping in terebinth groves and gardens.  Yahweh intends to put an end to that worship (Isaiah 1:28-31).  When He comes, He will make Judah ashamed of her trees and gardens.  Instead of pleasant fruit, Judah will reap defeat and humiliation.

It’s Eden all over again: Judah is Adam in the garden, taking forbidden fruit, and suffering shame as a result.
