Do ye not remember to have read the words of the prophet Zenos, which he spake unto the house of Israel, saying:Hearken, O ye house of Israel, for behold, thus saith the Lord, I will liken thee, O house of Israel, like unto a tame olive tree

which a man took and nourished in his vineyard...

…and it grew, and waxed old, and began to decay.

And... he pruned it, and digged about it, and nourished it.

After many days it began to put forth somewhat a little, young and tender branches;

but the main top began to perish.

And it came to pass that the master of the vineyard saw it,

and he said unto his servant...

It grieveth me that I should lose this tree;

Go and pluck the branches from a wild olive tree, and bring them hither unto me;

and we will pluck off those main branches which are beginning to wither away, I will take these young and tender branches, and I will graft them whithersoever I will. Take thou the branches of the wild olive tree, and graft them in, in the stead thereof.

That perhaps I might preserve the roots I have done this thing.

Watch the tree, and nourish it, according to my words.

These will I place in the nethermost part of my vineyard;

and I do it that I may preserve unto myself the natural branches of the tree;

And the Lord of the vineyard went his way, and hid the natural branches of the tame olive tree in the nethermost parts of the vineyard...some in one...

...and some in another, according to his will and pleasure.
