The Hebrew expression is very descriptive of the construction of a potters wheel which consisted of two stones joined by a horizontal shaft. The potter rotated the wheel with his feet on the lower wheel and worked the clay with his hands on the upper. For a picture of a potter working at his wheel see I. Ben-Dor, “Potters Wheel,” IDB 3:846. See also the discussion regarding the making of pottery in J. L. Kelso, “Pottery,” IDB 3:846-53.","source_note_position":2,"source_url":"https://netbible.org/resource/netNote/Jeremiah%2018%3A3/2"}

In any case the vessel was “ruined” or “spoiled” or defective in the eyes of the potter. This same verb has been used of the linen shorts that were “ruined” and hence were “good for nothing” in Jer 13:7 . The nature of the clay and how it responded to the potters hand determined the kind of vessel that he made of it. He did not throw the clay away. This is the basis for the application in vv. 7-10 to any nation and to the nation of Israel in particular vv. 10-17 .","source_note_position":2,"source_url":"https://netbible.org/resource/netNote/Jeremiah%2018%3A4/2"}

They are in his hands like the clay in the hands of the potter. Since they have not been pliable he forms new plans. He still offers them opportunity to repent; but their response is predictable.","source_note_position":2,"source_url":"https://netbible.org/resource/netNote/Jeremiah%2018%3A11/2"}
