Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 13:1-27

A nation useless and disgraced (13:1-27)In an effort to emphasize God’s warnings to Judah more forcefully, Jeremiah gave them an illustration that they could all see. He took a piece of clean new cloth, put it around his waist, then walked to a distant river where he buried the cloth in the river bank. Some time later he returned to the river and brought back the cloth for all to see. It was now rotten and useless (13:1-7). The meaning is that Judah, the nation that was supposed to be morally... read more

The linen waistband 13:1-11This is the first of several symbolic acts that Jeremiah performed to communicate divine messages (cf. Jeremiah 16:1-4; Jeremiah 18:1-12; Jeremiah 19:1-2; Jeremiah 19:10-11; Jeremiah 27:1 to Jeremiah 28:17; Jeremiah 32:1-15; Jeremiah 43:8-13; Jeremiah 51:59-64). Other prophets did the same thing (cf. Isaiah 20:2-6; Ezekiel 4:1-13; Ezekiel 5:1-4). This acted sermon confronted the Judahites with the polluting effect of their associations and the consequences. read more

Again, the Lord’s instructions came to Jeremiah after some time, telling him to return to the same site, and to retrieve the waistband that he had hidden there. When he did this, he discovered that the waistband had become ruined, and was useless. read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 13:1-27

Jeremiah’s Seventh Prophecy (Reign of Jehoiachin). The Linen GirdleThe date of this prophecy is shown pretty clearly by the word ’queen’ (Jeremiah 13:18), which means queen-mother, namely, Nehushta, mother of Jehoiachin. The queen-mother had always a high position, and in Jehoiachin’s case this would be specially so, owing to his tender years.1-11. The symbol of the linen girdle.1. Go, etc.] It is doubtful whether this and the subsequent acts of the prophet were real or done only in symbol. As,... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Jeremiah 13:7

(7) The girdle was marred.—The symbolism is explained in Jeremiah 13:9. The girdle stained, decayed, worthless, was a parable of the state of Judah after the exile, stripped of all its outward greatness, losing the place which it had once occupied among the nations of the earth. read more

Habit Jeremiah 13:23 I. The Origin of Habit. Habit may be conceived to arise in this way. When, in the revolution of time of the day, or the week, or the month, or the year the point comes round at which we have been thinking of anything, or have done anything, by the law of the association of ideas we think of it again, or do it again. For instance, when day dawns we awake. We get out of bed because we have done it at that time before. At a later hour we take breakfast, and go away to... read more

CHAPTER VIIITHE FALL OF PRIDEJeremiah 13:1-27THIS discourse is a sort of appendix to the preceding; as is indicated by its abrupt and brief beginning with the words "Thus said Iahvah unto me," without the addition of any mark of time, or other determining circumstance. It predicts captivity, in retribution for the pride and ingratitude of the people; and thus suitably follows the closing section of the last address, which announces the coming deportation of Judah and her evil neighbours. The... read more

CHAPTER 13 Signs, Warnings, and Exhortations 1. The linen girdle and the filled bottles (Jeremiah 13:1-14 ) 2. Hear and give glory (Jeremiah 13:15-21 ) 3. The justice of the judgment (Jeremiah 13:22-27 ) Jeremiah 13:1-14 . The prophet enacts a sign, that of the linen girdle. After he had put on the girdle, he was told to hide it in a hole of the rock of the Euphrates. After many days, he was commanded to dig for the girdle. It was found marred and profitable for nothing. Was this only a... read more
