Matthew Poole and continuators on Jeremiah 24:9

9 And I will deliver them to be removed into all the kingdoms of the earth, for their hurt, to be a reproach, and a proverb, a taunt, and a curse in all places whither I shall drive them .

The Lord by his Prophet expresseth those tremendous judgments which he had designed to bring upon this wicked Prince and people in the words of Moses the man of God, as well because the Jewes had a great Reverence (pretendedly at least) for Moses, how little soever they had for Jeremiah: as to let them see, that what the Lord here threatned, and suddenly would bring to pass was but in a just accomplishment of what he before had threatned in his Law by which they ought to have taken warning. The sum is, he would make them a common scoff, and By-word, that their Misery should be a common Proverb, and when men would Curse one another, they should wish them like Zedekiah and the Jews.
