The LORD, Yahweh, is the covenant God of Israel, emphasizing His relationship with His chosen people. Jeremiah, as a prophet, serves as a mouthpiece for God, highlighting the prophetic tradition where God communicates His will through chosen individuals. This underscores the seriousness and authenticity of the message.Take from My hand this cup of the wine of wrath: The "cup" is a metaphor for God's judgment, a common biblical symbol representing divine retribution (<a href="/psalms/75-8.htm">Psalm 75:8</a>, <a href="/isaiah/51-17.htm">Isaiah 51:17</a>). The "wine of wrath" signifies the intensity and inevitability of this judgment. In ancient Near Eastern culture, wine was often associated with both celebration and judgment, making it a powerful symbol for the consequences of sin. This imagery is later echoed in the New Testament, particularly in <a href="/revelation/14-10.htm">Revelation 14:10</a>, where the wrath of God is similarly depicted.and make all the nations to whom I send you drink from it: This phrase indicates the universal scope of God's judgment, extending beyond Israel to all nations. It reflects the biblical theme of God's sovereignty over all the earth and His role as judge of all peoples (<a href="/psalms/82-8.htm">Psalm 82:8</a>). Historically, this prophecy was fulfilled as various nations experienced God's judgment through conquest and exile. The act of making them "drink" signifies their unavoidable participation in the consequences of their actions. This also foreshadows the ultimate judgment at the end of times, as seen in <a href="/revelation/16-19.htm">Revelation 16:19</a>, where the nations face God's final wrath.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <a href="/topical/j/jeremiah.htm">Jeremiah</a> A prophet called by God to deliver messages of judgment and hope to the people of Judah and the surrounding nations. 2. <a href="/topical/t/the_lord,_the_god_of_israel.htm">The LORD, the God of Israel</a> The sovereign God who communicates His will and judgment through His prophets. 3. <a href="/topical/t/the_cup_of_the_wine_of_wrath.htm">The Cup of the Wine of Wrath</a> A symbolic representation of God's impending judgment and wrath upon the nations. 4. <a href="/topical/t/the_nations.htm">The Nations</a> Refers to the various nations surrounding Judah, including Babylon, Egypt, and others, who are recipients of God's judgment. 5. <a href="/topical/j/judah.htm">Judah</a> The southern kingdom of Israel, which is also under God's judgment for its disobedience and idolatry.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><a href="/topical/u/understanding_god's_righteous_judgment.htm">Understanding God's Righteous Judgment</a> God's wrath is not arbitrary but is a response to persistent sin and rebellion.

The symbolic act which the prophet is directed to perform is mentioned in order to explain the word of threatening just uttered. So, at least, we must understand it, if we accept the arrangement of the Hebrew text. But the connection is certainly improved if we follow Graf, and omit vers. 11b-14; ver. 15 thus becomes an explanation of the threat against Judah and the other nations in vers. 9-11a.
