John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 19:11

And shalt say unto them, thus saith the Lord of hosts ,.... Of armies above and below; and so able to execute what he here threatens: even so will I break this people and this city : the people, the inhabitants of this city, and that itself, by the sword, famine, burning, and captivity: as one breaketh a potter's vessel, that cannot be made whole again ; or "healed" F18 לחרפה "sanari", Montanus; "curari", Pagninus, Junius & Tremellius. ; a potter's vessel, upon the... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 19:12

Thus will I do unto this place, saith the Lord, and to the inhabitants thereof ,.... To the city of Jerusalem and its inhabitants, as was done to the earthen bottle, and as before threatened: and even , or also, make this city as Tophet ; as full of slaughtered men and women as that had been of the blood of innocent children; and as filthy, abominable, and execrable a place as that; and to lose its name, as that is foretold it should, Jeremiah 19:6 ; and as Jerusalem did, after... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 19:13

And the houses of Jerusalem ,.... Where the common people dwelt: and the houses of the kings of Judah ; the palaces of the king, princes, and nobles of Judah, one as well as another: shall be defiled os Tophet ; as that was defiled with the bodies and bones of the slain, and with the faith of the city brought unto it; so the houses of great and small, high and low, should be defiled with the carcasses of the slain that should lie unburied there; their houses should be their graves,... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 19:7

I will make void the counsel of Judah - Probably this refers to some determination made to proclaim themselves independent, and pay no more tribute to the Chaldeans. To be meat for the fowls - See on Jeremiah 7:33 ; (note). read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 19:9

I will cause them to eat the flesh of their sons - This was literally fulfilled when Jerusalem was besieged by the Romans. This also the prophet might have had in view. read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 19:11

Even so will I break this people and this city - The breaking of the bottle was the symbolical representation of the destruction of the city and of the state. That cannot be made whole again - This seems to refer rather to the final destruction of Jerusalem by the Romans, than to what was done by the Chaldeans. Jerusalem was healed after 70 years: but nearly 1800 years have elapsed since Jerusalem was taken and destroyed by the Romans; and it was then so broken, that it could not be made... read more

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 19:3

Verse 3 He now adds, Hear ye the word of Jehovah. This is a confirmation of the former sentence. We hence see why it was said, Cry, or, with a clear voice proclaim, what I shall say to thee; it was, that they might know that he spake not according to his own ideas as a man, but that he was a celestial herald to proclaim what God commanded. Hear, he says, ye kings of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem. We see how the Prophet did not spare even kings, according to what God had before commanded... read more
