Now God expounds his meaning in his former command: he ordered Jeremiah to take stones, and hide them in a place near the king of Egypt’s palace; now he tells them that this was for a sign that Nebuchadnezzar should set his throne and spread his pavilion in that place. This Nebuchadnezzar God calls his servant, because he was to obey him in what he should do, though he intended not so. Thus Assyria is called the rod of his anger, Isa_10:5; and Nebuchadnezzar is so called, Jer_25:9 27:6.

Upon these stones that I have hid; God owneth the stones to be laid by himself, because they were laid at his command.
