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 the desolation of it by Hadrian, as Jerom observes; for what was built upon the spot afterwards was by the emperor called Aelia, after his own name.
