Tafsiran yang Mengutip untuk Yeremia 15:12

Thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel: – The word תרעם has the same meaning as תשברם (Thou shalt break them). And so, “Can one break (ירע) iron?” (Jer. 15:12); “He breaketh in pieces (ירע) mighty men” (Job 34:24); so also תנפצם (Thou shalt dash them in pieces) has the meaning of “break,” but with (the added idea of) “scattering,” for when one breaks an earthenware vessel its broken pieces are scattered. And so (in the verse) “and dashed in pieces the pitchers” (Judges 7:19); and the maker of an earthenware vessel is called a potter.

death will devour them Heb. ירעם. The angel of death will devour them. Do not wonder about this expression of eating because we find elsewhere (Job 18:13): “the prince of death shall devour his branches.” Another explanation: [It is] an expression of breaking, as (Jer. 15:12): “Will iron break (הירע)?”
