"And he shall break it as a potter`s vessel is broken, breaking it in pieces without sparing; so that there shall not be found among the pieces thereof a sherd wherewith to take fire from the hearth, or to dip up water out of the cistern." — Isaiah 30:14 (ASV)
As the breaking of the potter’s vessel ...Psalms 2:9 had given currency to the figure. In Jeremiah 18:4 and Jeremiah 19:10, it passes into a parable of action. The schemes of the intriguers were to be not only crushed but pulverized.
