Matthew Poole and continuators on Jeremiah 15:1

1 THen said the LORD unto me, Though Moses and Samuel stood before me, yet my mind could not be towards this people ; Cast them out of my sight, and let them go forth .

We are (though in another Chapter) yet in the same Prophesie, or discourse betwixt God and this Prophet, Ieremiah having been once denyed, sollicited God again, as we had it in the four last verses of the former Chapter. God here replyeth to that Prayer, and the sum of what he saith is, that he was inexorable in their case. Though Moses who could obtain so much of God, upon their sinning, in the case of the Golden Calf, Exod. 32.11, 14. and in the case of the peoples murmuring, Numb. 14.19, 20. and Sam[illegible: 2 letters]l who was so prevalent with God, 1 Sam. 7.9. though these two formerly so potent and prevalent Mediators for a people with me, stood before m[illegible: 1 letter] ▪ waited (that is) upon me, and sollicited me on the behalf of this people, yet I could not favour this people.

Cast them out of my sight, I am not able to abide them; and let them go forth.
