Contextual Overview

¹ This is another communication that God had with Ieremie, saying: ² Arise, and go downe into the potters house, & there shal I tell thee more of my mynde, ³ Nowe when I came to the potters house, I founde hym makyng his worke vpon a wheele. ⁴ The vessell that the potter made of clay, brake among his handes: So he began a newe, and made another vessell accordyng to his mynde. ⁵ Then sayde the Lorde thus vnto me: ⁶ May not I do with you as this potter doth O ye house of Israel saith the Lorde? Beholde ye house of Israel, ye are in my hande, euen as the clay is in the potters hande. ⁷ When I take in hande to roote out, to destroy, or to waste away any people or kyngdome: ⁸ If that people agaynst whom I haue thus deuised, conuert from their wickednesse, I repent of the plague that I deuised to bryng vpon them. ⁹ Agayne, when I take in hande to builde or to plant a people or a kyngdome: ¹⁰ If the same people do euyll before me and heare not my voyce, I repent of the good that I haue deuised for them.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Arise, and go down to the potter's house,.... Which, no doubt, was well known to the prophet; but where it was is not certain. Some think Jeremiah was in the temple, and this house was beneath it, and therefore he is bid to go down to it; but of this there is no certainty, nor even probability: it is most likely that this house was without the city, perhaps near the potter's field, Matthew 27:10; and which lying low, he is ordered to go down to it:

and there I will cause thee to hear my words; there the Lord would tell him what he had further to say to him, and what he should say to the people; and where by lively representations, by sensible objects before him, he would cause him to understand more clearly what he said and designed to do: as God sometimes represented things to the minds of the prophets in dreams and visions, setting before them mental objects, and raising in their minds ideas of things; so sometimes he represented things to them by real visible objects, and, by similes taken from thence, conveyed unto them a clear and distinct knowledge of his mind and will, and they to the people; which was the case here.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

House - i. e., workshop. The clay-field where the potters exercised their craft lay to the south of Jerusalem just beyond the valley of Hinnom. Compare Zechariah 11:13; Matthew 27:10.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Jeremiah 18:2. Go down to the potter's house — By this similitude God shows the absolute state of dependence on himself in which he has placed mankind. They are as clay in the hands of the potter; and in reference to every thing here below, he can shape their destinies as he pleases. Again; though while under the providential care of God they may go morally astray, and pervert themselves, yet they can be reclaimed by the almighty and all-wise Operator, and become such vessels as seemeth good for him to make. In considering this parable we must take heed that in running parallels we do not destroy the free agency of man, nor disgrace the goodness and supremacy of God.
