The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 19:11
As one breaketh a potter's vessel (comp. Isaiah 30:14 ). Dr. Them-son speaks of the utter indifference with which the common pottery of Palestine is handled. It is not only brittle, but so cheap that no one is distressed at breaking it. And they shall bury them in Tophet , etc. These words form the conclusion of Jeremiah 7:32 (see note), the greater part of which is repeated in Jeremiah 7:6 . They are certainly out of place here, and are wanting in the Septuagint. read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Jeremiah 19:13
The houses of the kings of Judah ; i.e. the palaces and other buildings which together made up the king's house ( Jeremiah 22:6 ). Shall he defiled as the place of Tophet . This is one of the few places in which the Authorized Version has allowed itself to interfere with the received text; for the Hebrew has "which are defiled," etc. The common reading, in fact, seems untranslatable. Because of all the houses ; rather, even all the houses . read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Jeremiah 19:7
Make void - The verb used here is that from which “bottle” Jeremiah 19:1 is derived, and as it represents the sound made by the water running out, it would be better translated, “pour out.” Jeremiah perhaps carried the bottle to Tophet full of water, the symbol in the East of life Isaiah 35:6; Isaiah 41:18, and at these words emptied it before the assembled elders. read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Jeremiah 19:11
Made whole again - literally, “healed.” In this lies the distinction between this symbol and that of Jeremiah 18:4. The plastic clay can be shaped and re-shaped until the potter forms with it the vessel he had predetermined: the broken bottle is of no further use, but its fragments are cast away forever upon the heaps of rubbish deposited in Tophet. read more

Because of all - literally, “with reference to all,” limiting the denunciation to those houses whose roofs had been defiled with altars.Upon whose roofs they have burned incense - See 2 Kings 23:12, note. read more
