Ma viin teid välja selle keskelt ja annan teid võõraste kätte; otsused teie kohta viin ma täide.
Hesekiel 11:9
Pot
Pots" and other large vessels in the Bible represent facts and factual ideas, which serve as containers for truth the same way pots serve as containers for water or wine. Pots fill their function because they are hard, strong and impervious; facts are also absolute and unchanging, filling their function the same way. And pots must be filled to serve any use, just as facts must be filled with truth to serve any purpose. To some extent this meaning also applies to cups, bowls and other smaller vessels, though it is a little more immediate. Generally you don't fill a cup so you can store a liquid; you fill it to drink it. Smaller vessels then often take more of their meaning from the substance they contain, and in many cases ("cup" and "wine" especially) actually mean the same thing.
Matthew 7:3-5
3
Why do you see the speck that is in your brother's eye, but don't consider the beam that is in your own eye?
4
Or how will you tell your brother, 'Let me remove the speck from your eye;' and behold, the beam is in your own eye?
5
You hypocrite! First remove the beam out of your own eye, and then you can see clearly to remove the speck out of your brother's eye.
