Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 7. - I went... and digged. The apron, then, had been covered with a thick layer of earth.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(7) The girdle was marred.--The symbolism is explained in Jeremiah 13:9. The girdle stained, decayed, worthless, was a parable of the state of Judah after the exile, stripped of all its outward greatness, losing the place which it had once occupied among the nations of the earth.
