(Jeremiah 18)

God told Jeremiah to go to a potter, where God would speak of His relationship with the Israelites.

"So I went to the potter's house, and saw him working at the wheel. The pot he was making from the clay had become malformed in his hands; so he made it into a different pot, shaping it as seemed best. Then the word of the Lord came to me. He said, 'Can I not do with you, Israel, as this potter does?' declares the Lord. 'Like clay in the hand of the potter, so are you in my hand, Israel.' " The message is that God is in control and our free will cannot undo or outdo Him.

What Old Testament prophet was cited regarding the purchase of the potter's field?

A:Matthew 27:9-10 says, "Then was fulfilled what had been spoken by the prophet Jeremiah, saying, 'And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him on whom a price had been set by some of the sons of Israel, and they gave them for the potter's field, as the Lord directed me'."But this is not actually in Jeremiah. Jeremiah 32:6-9 does mention the purchase of a field, but not a potter's field, and not for thirty pieces of silver but for seventeen. Matthew has mixed something up here.
