Jeremias 13:11

11 Kay ingon nga ang bakus motaput sa hawak sa usa ka tawo, sa maong pagkaagi akong gipataput kanako ang tibook nga balay sa Israel ug ang tibook nga balay sa Juda, nagaingon si Jehova; aron sila mahimo alang kanako nga usa ka katawohan, ug usa ka ngalan, ug usa ka pagdayeg, ug usa ka himaya: apan sila wala managpatalinghug.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

For as the girdle cleaveth to the loins of a man,.... Being girt tight unto him:

so have I caused to cleave unto me the whole house of Israel, and the whole house of Judah; whom he chose above all people, and caused to approach unto him, and dwell in his courts; whom he favoured with his presence, and encouraged them to follow after him, and cleave to him in faith and affection, and with full purpose of heart; so that they were a people near unto him as a man's girdle is to his loins: and the end of this was, and would have been, had they continued so,

that they might be unto me for a people; his own people, a special and peculiar people above all others, peculiarly favoured and blessed by him, and continue so, and in the enjoyment of all good things:

and for a name, and for a praise, and for a glory; for a famous and renowned people, that should be to the praise and glory of God, and an honour to him, and an ornament to the profession of him; whereas they were the reverse:

but they would not hear; the words of the Lord, nor obey his voice; but served other gods, departed from the Lord, to whom they should have cleaved, and so became like this rotten girdle.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The reason why the girdle was chosen as the symbol. Similarly, Israel was the people chosen and set apart that in and by them the Holy Spirit might work for the salvation of mankind.
