Structure and formatting

Some translations indent each line of poetry to make it easier to read. The ULB does this with the poetry in this chapter.

Special concepts in this chapter

Potter and clay

The potter and the clay are important images used in Scripture. They emphasize the power and control of God. This chapter connects this to the truth that Yahweh is the creator of all, which it repeatedly emphasizes. He is even able to "anoint" or chose a future, pagan king. (See: rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/anoint)
