1-10:  Under the type of a potter is shewn God's absolute power in disposing of nations.
11-17:  Judgments threatened to Judah for her strange revolt.
18-23:  Jeremiah prays against his conspirators.
 The manufacturer of earthenware utensils was a man of no mean repute among the Hebrews, nor yet among the surrounding nations. In 1 Chronicles 4:22, 23, the potters are among those who “dwelt with the king for his work.” They were under the royal patronage and the royal eye. They speak of that communion with the Lord which is an absolute essential if there be work in accordance with His mind. The laborer must dwell with Him if he would be “well-pleasing to Him.” (Chapter 9 by H.A. Ironside)
