Exegesis
A sequence of perfect verbs—venasa anaf {וְנָשָׂא עָנָף | wə-nā-śāʼ ʿā-nāp} ‘it will send forth a branch’, ve’asa peri {וְעָשָׂה פֶרִי | wə-ʿā-sāh pē-rī} ‘and make fruit’, vehayah le’erez addir {וְהָיָה לְאֶרֶז אַדִּיר | wə-hā-yāh lə-ʾē-rēz ’aḏ-ḏîr} ‘and it will become a mighty cedar’—creates a stepwise portrayal of growth and transformation.
In context — Ezekiel 17:23
On the high mountain of Israel I will plant it, and it will send out branches and produce fruit and will become a mighty cedar ; and beneath it will dwell every bird of every wing, and in the shade of its branches they will nest.
