What Does Jeremiah 13:3 Mean?

After Jeremiah has worn the girdle, God speaks to him a second time.

The repetition of God's word emphasizes the continuity of divine communication and purpose.

The second word from God will advance the symbolic action to its next phase. God is methodical in revealing His message, giving Jeremiah the space to complete the first part of the sign before introducing the more costly second part.
