[1] The word that came to Jeremiah from Yahweh: [2] "Come, go down to the potter's house, and there I will let you hear my words." [3] So I went down to the potter's house, and there he was working at his wheel. [4] The vessel he was making of clay was spoiled in the potter's hand, and he reworked it into another vessel, as seemed good to him. פ
[5] Then the word of Yahweh came to me: [6] Can I not do with you, O house of Israel, just as this potter has done? says Yahweh. Just like the clay in the potter's hand, so are you in my hand, O house of Israel. ס
[7] At one moment I may declare concerning a nation or a kingdom, that I will pluck up and break down and destroy it, [8] but if that nation, concerning which I have spoken, turns from its evil, I will change my mind about the disaster that I intended to bring on it. ס
[9] And at another moment I may declare concerning a nation or a kingdom that I will build and plant it, [10] but if it does evil in my sight, not listening to my voice, then I will change my mind about the good that I had intended to do to it. ס
[11] Now, therefore, say to the people of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem: Thus says Yahweh: Look, I am a potter shaping evil against you and devising a plan against you. Turn now, all of you from your evil way, and amend your ways and your doings.
--------------------
When verse one says (literally translated into English), “the word which came to pass to Jeremiah from Yahweh saying,” this cannot be seen as Jeremiah sitting in a chair in his house, when Yahweh all of a sudden showed up at the door and said, “Hey Jere, meet me down at the potter’s house. I want to tell you something there.” This “word that came to pass to Jeremiah from Yahweh” was spiritual, where Yahweh spoke to Jeremiah’s soul; so, when Jeremiah heard the voice of Yahweh “speaking” to his soul, he immediately listened. Because ordinary Tom, Dick, and Harriets cannot hear the voice of Yahweh speak to he or he … ever … this ability of Jeremiah says his soul was married to Yahweh. As a wife-soul, his soul was obediently alert to hear the call of Yahweh and immediately respond as His loving servant.
In verse two, there is a missing element, which is the first word spoken by Yahweh to Jeremiah, which says, “arise” (“qūm”). This, again, is not Yahweh telling Jeremiah to get up out of his seat, but it is a spiritual direction that says, “Let your soul lift away from your flesh, so I can show you metaphor that is in the material world. After that word “arise,” Yahweh then said, “and descend” (“wə·yā·raḏ·tā”) “to house of the potter.” The “house” is a statement of the realm of the world where life is found; and, “of the potter” is better translated as “of the fashioner” or “of the former” (“hay·yō·w·ṣêr,” rooted in “yatsar”). This is then much less about taking the soul of Jeremiah down the road a bit to where some man made vases for the locals to buy and use and much more about Yahweh taking the soul of Jeremiah well back in time, to when Creation was in progress by the elohim created by Yahweh (in Genesis 1) did the work of a “fashioner” or “former.”
In verse three, the English translation above misses an important signal found in the text. Where we read, “and there he was,” the Hebrew text has this text presented: “[ “wə·hin·nê·hū” ] ( “wə·hin·nêh-” ) ( “hū” )” . The repeated word – “wə·hin·nê·hū” – speaks spiritually, rather than physically. Thus, when verse three begins by saying, “and when I descended to the realm of the fashioner,” a semi-colon mark separates that by the above text, which repeats: “and there was he and there was he,” where the brackets speak spiritually of the elohim “fashioner” of mankind in Creation AND there was Yahweh overseeing that work.
Genesis 1 includes the same Hebrew word “והנהו” written here, translated as “and there was he.” In Genesis 1:31 (the last verse), that word is written and translated as meaning “and indeed it was,” followed by the Hebrew word “towb,” meaning “good.” Thus, here the translation can be: “and indeed it was and indeed it was he”. Without understanding why Jeremiah would place certain words between brackets and parentheses means translation services throw that out as if unimportant and not worth figuring out. The unstated (as asides) are inferences to the spiritual; so, the soul of Jeremiah was taken to the time of Creation, when saw mankind being “fashioned.”
When verse four begins by stating, “and was gone to ruin the vessel,” when understanding the soul of Jeremiah has been transported to a time when mankind was being “formed” by the hand of the elohim “fashioner,” the aspect of a “ruined vessel” must be seen as when the elohim began hideous experiments with humanity, with the creation of grotesque monsters and giants. As “vessels,” each was designed (by Yahweh) to receive a soul that would animate the “vessel” to life. Because Yahweh’s plan did not allow the elohim the freedom to make horrendous changes in mankind (male and female they made them), the Great Flood would become the event that would be when “again he made it into vessel another , as good it seemed to the fashioner to make .” This was when all the monsters had been destroyed or driven underground, so the mankind stemming from Noah (descendant of Adam – the Son of Yahweh) would be Yahweh’s design that would be “good to make”.
Thus, the first four verses speak of the design of Yahweh, whose instructions were passed on to the “fashioner” or the “former.” This element of the “potter” must be seen as parallel of Genesis 1, where the “fashioner” were the elohim that were created by Yahweh to “form” the material plane. The “former’s house” is then the Earth which spins around the Sun on a flat plane orbit, as a spinning “wheel.” When Yahweh allowed Jeremiah to see the “ruin” of that being “made of flesh” (metaphor for “clay”), it was “reworked” or “again made.” This becomes parallel to the Great Flood that destroyed all that had been “formed,” but went wrong in formation. The Great Flood was followed by Noah and Shem begetting the royal line of souls that would become the spiritual descendants of Abram.
The placement of a “peh” (“פ”) at then end of verse four signals this important section is “open.” This says the four-verse presentation of Creation of mankind, with it becoming “marred” while still in a wet “clay” state ends with that story, while opening the following verses to “close” that perspective. The ending of verses six, eight and ten with a samekh (“ס”) means the open series is then “closed,” with three closures presented, with all relating to the Great Flood’s cleansing of the “ruined,” to be replaced with a new “formation.”
Verse five then repeats verse one, with Jeremiah replacing his name with “to me” (“’ê·lay”). The promise of Yahweh speaking to Jeremiah is then fulfilled, after his soul has seen the power of Yahweh to command changes to His creations. Here, Yahweh poses a question that implies Yahweh’s command of the elohim He created makes Him be the premier “former” of “fashioner,” whose hands hold the spirits that are the elohim, so they can be reshaped and remade when He seen “ruin” in their “formation.” This becomes an unstated question about the power of Yahweh to cast down into the earth the fallen angels who rebelled against Yahweh’s command to serve mankind. When they instead decided to make monsters of animal-man (male and female they were crossbred with the elohim (or “gods”), their “potter’s clay” was redone and they were forbid from ever touching the spinning wheel physically again.
When this deep concept is seen in this text, Yahweh then commanded Jeremiah to go “the house of Israel” and explain to them (again) what that house means. The word “Israel” means those people (not a nation) “Who Retain the el of Yahweh” – His elohim that is the Son. For all souls who do not marry their souls to Yahweh, so their souls can be cleansed of imperfections and made virginal to receive the soul of the Son within their souls, then those rejects will be smashed down onto the wheel, no longer the “ruined” work it had become. With that ‘return to Go’ done, everything the failed “house of Israel” would have become will be finished. This command to Jeremiah to know the power in the hands of Yahweh ends with a closure mark, showing Yahweh can ‘Great Flood’ the wicked calling themselves “Israel” falsely, so the world will be swept clean of their “ruined formation.”
In verse seven, Yahweh said, “the moment I speak , concerning a people and concerning a sovereignty ; to root out and to break down to perish .” This says the manner in which Yahweh “speaks” to “a people” who claim “sovereignty” due to having been “fashioned” by the hand of Yahweh, but are not perfectly made by His design, those words will be heard in the dismantling of all who falsely make such claims in Yahweh’s name as the “immediate” destruction of the “ruined vessel” they truly were.
In verse eight, those who hear that word of Yahweh spoken in the signs that lead to “perishing” as ”a people” and as “a sovereign” gathering in Yahweh’s name, so the “people” change their wicked way and repent, then Yahweh will save them. To see Yahweh saying “I will relent from disaster” as a statement that says, “I will save them from their self-made disaster,” the implication is the “people” themselves cannot keep themselves from heading towards “disaster.” Therefore, only “Yahweh Will Save,” which is a promise that says “I will console their souls from disaster” by sending their soul the soul of My Son to join with their souls. This leads to another mark of “closure,” related to the Creation story told prior. Yahweh created “a people sovereign as the truth of Israel,” all of whom received His Spirit and were each the resurrection of His Son’s soul. That addition to the “clay” of those “vessels” is the only way to avert “disaster.” Thus, Yahweh created His Son on the seventh day – the day made holy – for the sole purpose of saving mankind from “disaster.”
In verse nine, Yahweh spoke of the “moment His word decides to build and plant a people of His sovereignty.” This is then followed by verse ten, where once again there are spiritual statements of unstated physical words (as seen in verse three). The translation above that says, “but if it does evil in my sight” misses the point of Jeremiah writing “wə·‘ā·śāh [ “hā·rā·‘āh” ] ( “hā·ra‘” ) bə·‘ê·nay,” where the non-bracketed and non-parenthesized translates into English saying, “and if it makes in my eye”. This becomes the inspection of a “vessel” by the “fashioner,” to “see” if any imperfections are showing. The unstated spiritual word repeated implies that “made” is “evil” or “bad.” As an unstated spiritual implication, this says that which is “evil” is demonic spirit possession. Such demons possess a soul in its flesh (or ‘clay”), “making” it commit sins that are known by Yahweh. The acts committed are the signs of “ruin,” but the “evil” is spiritual, thus invisible to the naked “eye.”
When Yahweh then said “if a people formed in the image of Yahweh make it known they are imperfect,” then they will make that “evil” known by “disobeying His voice.” That says everyone of those “people” should be exactly like Jeremiah, such that each awaits the call from Yahweh and immediately responds, “Here I am” when called. When Jeremiah becomes the exception to that rule, then the people have given an unspoken sign that “evil” has possessed their souls. At that time, everything promised as “good” for “a people” will be taken away (“I will relent”). This then is where the third sign of “closure” is placed, referring back to the open series about the Creation plan and the cleaning of the wheel with the Great Flood.
Verse eleven is then the command given by Yahweh to Jeremiah, to “speak now to the men of Judah (a name that means “Praiser”) and to the souls dwelling in Jerusalem (a name meaning “Teaching Peace”)” and tell them, “behold Yahweh is fashioning their disaster and devising a plan against them”. If they want to avert their self-made destruction, then they must “return now man from evil ways and make good your ways and your doings”. That says the imperfection seen by the “eye” of Yahweh is telling Him to destroy and start over. The only way to avoid that destruction is to marry their individual souls to Yahweh and give rebirth to His Son in each of their souls. Of course, knowing the end of that story, they rejected the messenger and the message.
The moral of this story applies to everyone, at all times. Disaster is manmade and assured to all mortals. The ways of salvation are the perfect plan set forth by Yahweh, through Moses. The Commandments can only be remembered and lived when the Son of Yahweh’s soul has become one’s inner Lord, controlling the soul and its flesh (“clay”). To reject that design is to be reworked after destruction.
