Matthew Poole and continuators on Jeremiah 23:39

39 Therefore behold, I, even I will utterly forget you , and I will forsake you , and the city that I gave you and your fathers , and cast you out of my presence .

I will forget you as to my Affection, and that is more than if all your friends forgat you. There is a great Emphasis in the doubling of the Pronoun, I even I.

I will forsake you as to the presence of my special gracious Providence.

And do not flatter your selves that I will not do it, because of your fathers, or because I gave this City to your fathers, for that very City I will withdraw my special Providence from, and that land, which heretofore was called, The land which the Lord thy God careth for▪ upon which the eyes of the Lord are alwayes from the beginning of the year, even to the end of the year, Deut. 11.12.

And I will cast both City, and people out of my gracious Presence. So as I will no longer do them good as I have done.
