Jeremia 10:6 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 10:6

Forasmuch as there is none like unto thee, O Lord
None like him, for the perfections of his nature, for the works of his hands, and for the instances of his kindness and beneficence, both in a way of grace and providence; there is none like him for doing good, or doing evil; that is, for bestowing favours, or inflicting punishments; there is none like him for goodness or greatness, as follows: thou art great;
in his nature; of great power, wisdom, faithfulness, truth, and goodness; and in his works of creation and providence, and in everything in which he is concerned; and greatness is to be ascribed to him, and greatly is he to be praised; and all the glory due unto his name is to be given him: and thy name is great in might;
his name is himself, and his greatness much appears in the exertion of the attribute of his power and might; in making all things out of nothing, in upholding the whole creation, and in the government of the universe; or the fame of him is great through the effects of his power, which are to be seen throughout the earth.

Jeremia 10:6 In-Context

4 Er schmückt es mit Silber und mit Gold; mit Nägeln und mit Hämmern befestigen sie es, daß es nicht wanke;
5 sie sind wie eine gedrechselte Säule und reden nicht; sie werden getragen, denn sie gehen nicht. Fürchtet euch nicht vor ihnen; denn sie können nichts Böses tun, und Gutes zu tun steht auch nicht bei ihnen.
6 Gar niemand ist dir gleich, Jehova; du bist groß, und groß ist dein Name in Macht.
7 Wer sollte dich nicht fürchten, König der Nationen? Denn dir gebührt es. Denn unter allen Weisen der Nationen und in allen ihren Königreichen ist gar niemand dir gleich,
8 sondern sie sind allzumal dumm und töricht; die Unterweisung der Nichtigkeiten ist Holz.
