Throughout Scripture, the term is used both literally and metaphorically to describe physical objects, human spirits, and relationships with God.<br><br><b>Physical Brokenness</b><br><br>In the Old Testament, physical brokenness often refers to objects or structures. For example, in <a href="/judges/7-20.htm">Judges 7:20</a>, Gideon's men break their jars to reveal the torches inside, symbolizing the revelation of God's power through human weakness. Similarly, in <a href="/jeremiah/19-10.htm">Jeremiah 19:10-11</a>, God instructs Jeremiah to break a clay jar as a prophetic act, symbolizing the impending destruction of Jerusalem: "Then you are to shatter the jar in the presence of the men who accompany you, and you are to proclaim to them that this is what the LORD of Hosts says: 'I will smash this nation and this city just as this potter’s jar is smashed and cannot be repaired.'"<br><br><b>Spiritual Brokenness</b><br><br>Spiritually, brokenness is often associated with a contrite heart and repentance. <a href="/psalms/51-17.htm">Psalm 51:17</a> states, "The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart, O God, You will not despise." This verse highlights the value God places on humility and repentance over ritual sacrifices. A broken spirit is seen as a prerequisite for receiving God's grace and forgiveness.<br><br>In <a href="/isaiah/57-15.htm">Isaiah 57:15</a>, the Lord declares, "For thus says the One who is high and lifted up, who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy: 'I dwell in the high and holy place, and also with him who is of a contrite and lowly spirit, to revive the spirit of the lowly, and to revive the heart of the contrite.'" Here, brokenness is portrayed as a state that invites God's presence and restoration.<br><br><b>Brokenness and Redemption</b><br><br>The New Testament continues this theme, emphasizing brokenness as a pathway to redemption. In <a href="/luke/4-18.htm">Luke 4:18</a>, Jesus reads from the scroll of Isaiah, proclaiming, "The Spirit of the Lord is on Me, because He has anointed Me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent Me to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to release the oppressed." The broken and oppressed are the focus of Christ's redemptive mission, underscoring the transformative power of the Gospel.<br><br>The Apostle Paul also speaks to the concept of brokenness in <a href="/2_corinthians/4-7.htm">2 Corinthians 4:7-10</a>: "But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this surpassingly great power is from God and not from us. We are hard pressed on all sides, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed." Here, the imagery of fragile clay jars represents human frailty, through which God's power is made manifest.<br><br><b>Brokenness in Relationships</b><br><br>Brokenness can also refer to fractured relationships, particularly between humanity and God. Sin is often depicted as the cause of this brokenness, necessitating reconciliation through Christ. <a href="/romans/3-23.htm">Romans 3:23-24</a> states, "For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and all are justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus." The broken relationship is mended through the sacrificial work of Jesus, offering believers a restored connection with God.<br><br><b>Conclusion</b><br><br>In summary, the theme of brokenness in the Bible is multifaceted, encompassing physical, spiritual, and relational dimensions. It serves as a powerful reminder of human frailty, the need for repentance, and the hope of redemption through God's grace.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.
