Jeremiah 22:28

Is this man Coniah a despised broken idol? is he a vessel wherein is no pleasure? wherefore are they cast out, he and his seed, and are cast into a land which they know not?

A vessel wherein is no pleasure - (, "I am like a broken vessel;" . "Israel ... shall be among the Gentiles as a vessel wherein is no pleasure"). The answer to this is given Romans 9:20 (contrast ).

His seed - (see note, ).
