JEREMIAH 19
THE NATION OF JUDAH WILL SOON BE SHATTERED
Jeremiah purchased a clay flask from the potter and brought it back to the priests and leaders of Jerusalem. After delivering a message of warning to the people, Jeremiah smashed the pottery as a visualization of God smashing the nation into pieces.
Because Judah has refused to listen to God’s messages, an enemy from the north would attack and destroy them. Judah’s plans will be thwarted, and God’s plans will prevail.
