Matthew Poole and continuators on Jeremiah 15:7

7 And I will fan them with a fan in the gates of the land , I will bereave them of children , I will destroy my people, sith they return not from their wayes .

Not a purging fan by affliction to separate their chaff and dross from them, but a scattering fan, some Translate it into the gates of the Earth: So it is the same that God had before said, that he would remove them into all Nations; (Gates being put for Cities) but it is more probable that this is added in pursuit of the Metaphor of fanning, men usually choosing barn doors to fan at, that they may have the advantage of the wind.

Of Children is not in the Hebrew, and is needlesly supplyed, it may as well be of any, or all their comforts or good things.

Their priviledge claimed of being my people shall not protect them, so long as they go on in their leud and sinful courses.
