Isaiah 29:16 Douay-Rheims

This thought of yours is perverse: as if the clay should think against the potter, and the work should say to the maker thereof: Thou madest me not: or the thing framed should say to him that fashioned it: Thou understandest not.

Ibn Ezra

1089–1167 Jewish

הפככם You are going from the truth. אם כחמר היוצר יחשב Shall man be esteemed as the potter’s clay. ויצר And the thing framed. It is derived from יצר to form. ליצרו Of him that framed it. Comp. לי of me (Gen. 20:13)

Hebrew and Aramaic words are the commentator’s citations of the sacred text; the English translation that follows each is the translator’s.
