The "acted symbol of the linen girdle".[6]
Verse 11
- 'For as the sash clings to the waist of a man, so I have caused the whole house of Israel and the whole house of Judah to cling to Me,' says the Lord, 'that they may become My people, for renown, for praise, and for glory; but they would not hear.'[7]
"Sash", from Template:Langx (Template:Strong-number): a belt, girdle, waistband, loincloth, waist cloth, girdle of loin.[8] This loincloth is made of linen,[9] associated with priestly wear (Template:Bibleref2).[6]
Verses 12-14
The "spoken symbol of the bottles".[6]
Verse 18
- Say to the king and to the queen mother,
- “Humble yourselves;
- Sit down,
- For your rule shall collapse, the crown of your glory.[7]
The king and queen mother were probably Jehoiachin and Nehushta, respectively.[6][10] Commentator A. W. Streane refers to a minority view held by Karl Heinrich Graf and other biblical commentators, who suggested they were the earlier king Jehoiakim and Zebidah the queen mother.
