Arise, and go down to the potter's house, and there I will cause you to hear my words.
Read Chapter 18
Ephrem The Syrian
AD 373
“Get up and go to the potter’s house, and there you will hear my words.” Here we have a parable about a potter meant to call Israel to repentance. As the potter makes from clay any vessel he likes, so God can easily change their state of events, turning disaster into joy. If Israel does not give up its hypocrisy, the Lord will frighten them with great calamities. - "Commentary on Jeremiah 18.1"
