Thus saith the LORD the maker thereof, the LORD that formed it, to establish it; the LORDis his name;
The Lord is identified as the Maker, the One who formed what He purposed in order to establish it, and the Lord is declared to be His name. This belongs to the revelations given to Jeremiah while he was imprisoned during the final siege of Jerusalem. Spoken as Jerusalem faced destruction, its assurance of God's power as Maker grounds the promise that He is able to restore the city and His people.
The revelations surrounding it showed God's willingness to forgive and save, and they brought comfort to His faithful people. The promise first given to Israel applies today to institutions established for God's glory.
