Exegesis
The verse begins with the interrogative comparative construction hakhayotser hazzeh {הֲכַיּוֹצֵ֨ר הַזֶּ֜ה | hă-kā-yō-tsêr ha-zzeh} ‘as this potter’, which merges the preformative he and comparative prefix ka with the participle yotser {יוֹצֵר | yō-tzêr}.
In context — Jeremiah 18:6
“House of Israel, am I not able to deal with you like this potter?” declares the LORD . “Look—like the clay in the hand of the potter, so you are in My hand, house of Israel.”
