a potter's vessel, which cannot again be repaired

(Jer 19:1) Thus said LORD: Go, and buy a potter's earthen bottle, and [take] of the elders of the people, and of the elders of the priests,

(Jer 19:2) and go forth to the valley of the son of Hinnom, which is by the entry of the gate Harsith, and proclaim there the words that I shall tell thee.

(Jer 19:3) And say, Hear ye the word of LORD, O kings of Judah, and inhabitants of Jerusalem. Thus says LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: Behold, I will bring evil upon this place, which whoever hears, his ears shall tingle.

(Jer 19:4) Because they have forsaken me, and have estranged this place, and have burned incense in it to other gods that they knew not, they and their fathers and the kings of Judah, and have filled this place with the blood of innocents,

(Jer 19:5) and have built the high places of Baal, to burn their sons in the fire for burnt-offerings to Baal, which I commanded not, nor spoke it, neither did it come into my mind.

(Jer 19:6) Therefore, behold, the days come, says LORD, that this place shall no more be called Topheth, nor the valley of the son of Hinnom, but the valley of Slaughter.

(Jer 19:7) And I will make void the counsel of Judah and Jerusalem in this place. And I will cause them to fall by the sword before their enemies, and by the hand of those who seek their life. And I will give their dead bodies to be food for

(Jer 19:8) And I will make this city an astonishment, and a hissing. Everyone who passes by it shall be astonished and hiss because of all the plagues of it.

(Jer 19:9) And I will cause them to eat the flesh of their sons and the flesh of their daughters. And they shall eat each one the flesh of his friend, in the siege and in the distress with which their enemies, and those who seek their life, s

(Jer 19:10) Then thou shall break the bottle in the sight of the men who go with thee,

(Jer 19:11) and shall say to them, Thus says LORD of hosts: Even so I will break this people and this city, as a potter's vessel is broken, that cannot be made whole again. And they shall bury in Topheth till there be no place to bury.

Jerusalem has been destroyed many times. Even so many times it has been rebuild; meaning Jerimiah's prophesy is not fulfilled.

I wonder what that means, becuase everything can be rebuild. Even after a nuclear strike. See Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

Hiro and Naga were never hit by atomic bombs, otherwise they would never have been rebuilt.  They would be like chernobyl is today, 25 years later, a dead zone.   :sigh:

Hiro and Naga were firebombed.

I think the valley of dry bones might be describing a post nuclear scene.


The hand of the Lord was on me, and he brought me out by the Spirit of the Lord and set me in the middle of a valley; it was full of bones. 2 He led me back and forth among them, and I saw a great many bones on the floor of the valley, bones that were very dry. 3 He asked me, "Son of man, can these bones live?"  Eze 37


There are end time prophecies for great destruction in Israel.   IIRC my fallen prophecy thread.
