Context of Jeremiah 13:5
3Then the word of Adonai came to me a second time, saying: 4“Take the waistband that you bought, which is on your waist, and get up, go to Perath and hide it there in a cleft of the rock.” So I went and hid it at Perath, as Adonai commanded me. 6Now it came to pass after many days that Adonai said to me: “Get up, go to Perath, and take the waistband that I commanded you to hide there.” 7So I went to Perath, dug it up and took the waistband from the place where I had hidden it. But to my surprise, the waistband was marred, worth nothing at all.

- Jamieson–Fausset–Brown Commentary · v. 1-27Many of these figurative acts being either not possible, or not probable, or decorous, seem to have existed only in the mind of the prophet as part of his inward vision.
