47.The restoration of Moab














Therefore behold, the days are coming, declares the LORD
This phrase introduces a prophetic declaration, a common formula in the prophetic books indicating the certainty of God's future actions. It emphasizes God's sovereignty and the inevitability of His plans. The phrase "the days are coming" is often used in the prophetic literature to signal impending judgment or fulfillment of God's promises, as seen in other passages likeJeremiah 31:31, which speaks of a new covenant.

when I will send to him wanderers
"Wanderers" here likely refers to invaders or marauders, possibly the Babylonians, who were known for their military campaigns and conquests. This reflects the historical context of the Babylonian Empire's expansion under Nebuchadnezzar II. The term suggests a sense of instability and disruption, as wanderers are not settled but move from place to place, bringing chaos.

who will pour him out
This imagery of pouring out suggests a complete emptying or desolation. It is symbolic of judgment and destruction, akin to the pouring out of wrath seen in other prophetic texts likeIsaiah 51:17. The act of pouring out can also be seen as a metaphor for God's judgment being thorough and exhaustive.

They will empty his vessels
The vessels likely symbolize the wealth, resources, or people of Moab. In ancient times, vessels were used to store valuable commodities, so emptying them signifies a stripping away of prosperity and security. This can be connected to the broader theme of divine retribution against nations that oppose God's will, as seen in the judgment against Babylon inJeremiah 51:34.

and shatter his jars
Shattering jars indicates total destruction and irreparability. In the cultural context, jars were essential for daily life, used for storing water, oil, and grain. The shattering signifies not just loss but a complete breakdown of societal and economic structures. This imagery is reminiscent of the potter's vessel inJeremiah 19:11, symbolizing how God can break nations as easily as a potter breaks a flawed pot.

Teaching Points
God's Sovereignty Over Nations
God is in control of all nations and their destinies. No nation, regardless of its power or pride, is beyond His reach or judgment.

The Consequences of Pride
Moab's downfall serves as a warning against pride and self-reliance. Nations and individuals alike must recognize their dependence on God.

Divine Judgment is Inevitable
God's judgment may be delayed, but it is certain. This should lead to repentance and humility before God.

Symbolism of Vessels
The imagery of vessels being tipped and shattered can be applied to our lives. We must ensure our "vessels" are filled with righteousness and not pride or sin.

Hope in God's Justice
While judgment is severe, it is also just. Believers can find hope in the fact that God will ultimately set things right.

What Does Jeremiah 48:12 Mean
Therefore behold, the days are coming

“Therefore behold, the days are coming” (Jeremiah 48:12a)

• “Therefore” ties the verse to the catalogue of Moab’s sins in the first eleven verses—chief among them pride (Jeremiah 48:7, 29).

• “Behold” signals certainty; God’s warning is not hypothetical (Isaiah 13:6;Amos 4:2).

• “The days are coming” is a prophetic marker Jeremiah often uses for an inevitable, dated judgment (Jeremiah 7:32; 16:14; 23:7). The clock is ticking; Moab’s complacency (v.11) will be shattered.

Declares the LORD

Jeremiah inserts “declares the LORD” (v.12b) to remind readers that:

• The message is divine, not Jeremiah’s personal anger (Jeremiah 1:8; 25:7).

• God alone sets the terms of history (Isaiah 46:9-10).

• Because it is the LORD who speaks, the prophecy carries the full weight of covenant authority (Deuteronomy 32:39-41).

When I will send to him wanderers

“I will send to him wanderers” (v.12c)

• “Him” refers to Moab as a nation.

• The “wanderers” picture mobile invaders—Babylonian forces and their allies (Jeremiah 48:20;2 Kings 24:2).

• God “sends” them; they are instruments in His hand (Jeremiah 25:9;Isaiah 5:26). Even hostile armies fulfill divine purpose (Habakkuk 1:6).

Who will pour him out

“…who will pour him out” (v.12d)

• The imagery shifts to winemaking: jars tipped over, contents lost.

• Moab, once “undisturbed on his dregs” (v.11), will be upended; his supposed stability is temporary (Jeremiah 13:12-14).

• The same verb pictures God’s wrath being poured (Lamentations 2:2;Revelation 16:1); judgment empties what pride fills.

They will empty his vessels

“They will empty his vessels” (v.12e)

• Vessels refer to people, cities, and treasures—everything Moab relies on (Jeremiah 50:37).

• Invaders will strip the land bare, just as Nebuchadnezzar emptied Solomon’s temple (2 Chronicles 36:18).

• God’s discipline often includes economic and cultural loss (Deuteronomy 28:47-48).

And shatter his jars

“…and shatter his jars” (v.12f)

• The final blow: not only contents but containers destroyed—total ruin (Jeremiah 19:11;Psalm 2:9).

• Moab’s national identity, symbolized by its jars, will be smashed so completely that nothing useful remains (Nahum 2:1-2).

• God’s justice is thorough; half-measures would allow pride to rise again.

summary

Jeremiah 48:12 announces Moab’s certain, comprehensive judgment. God Himself commissions wandering invaders to overturn a complacent nation, pouring out its contents, emptying its wealth, and smashing every support it trusts. The verse underscores the Lord’s total sovereignty: He sets the day, sends the agents, and ensures nothing escapes His righteous hand. For every generation the message stands—pride invites God’s decisive, unavoidable discipline, and no earthly security can withstand it.

Verse 12. -Wanderers, that shall cause him to wander; rather,taters, and they shall tilt him. The earthen jars of which Thevenot speaks were doubtless similar to those of the Israelites. They would be tilted on one side, that the wine might run off clear from the dregs.Their bottles; rather,flagons orpitchers (of earthenware). The confusion of numbers and pronouns is remarkable. First, Moab collectively is spoken of as a wine jar; then the Moabites individually as Moab's jars; last of all, the Moabites are spoken of as possessing "jars" (i.e. all the institutions, public and private, of the state and of society).
