18:1-11 The Lord had Jeremiah take part in an object lesson. What Jeremiah observed at the potter’s shop became a picture of what the Lord was about to do with Judah.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

(Occurrence 0) the pot he was making from the clay was spoiled in the potter’s hand

(Some words not found in UHB: and,spoiled the,vessel which/who he/it producing in/on/at/with,clay in/on/at/with,hand the,potter and,again and,made,it vessel next/another just=as right in/on=both_eyes_of the,potter for=doing )

The word “spoiled” means that something about the pot made the potter unhappy. If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “the pot that the potter was making with his hands was not good”

(Occurrence 0) was making

(Some words not found in UHB: and,spoiled the,vessel which/who he/it producing in/on/at/with,clay in/on/at/with,hand the,potter and,again and,made,it vessel next/another just=as right in/on=both_eyes_of the,potter for=doing )

Alternate translation: “was forming” or “was shaping”

(Occurrence 0) he returned the clay and formed it into another pot

(Some words not found in UHB: and,spoiled the,vessel which/who he/it producing in/on/at/with,clay in/on/at/with,hand the,potter and,again and,made,it vessel next/another just=as right in/on=both_eyes_of the,potter for=doing )

He stopped making the pot, crushed the clay back into a lump, and then used that lump of clay to make another pot.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

(Occurrence 0) that was pleasing in his eyes

(Some words not found in UHB: and,spoiled the,vessel which/who he/it producing in/on/at/with,clay in/on/at/with,hand the,potter and,again and,made,it vessel next/another just=as right in/on=both_eyes_of the,potter for=doing )

Here the word “eyes” represents sight and sight represents one’s opinion. Alternate translation: “that he thought was good”
