Jeremiah29:20
20 ¶ Hear ye therefore the word of the LORD, all ye of the captivity whom I have sent from Jerusalem to Babylon .
Those phrases I have sent, and I have driven, &c. are diligently to be observed by us. There is no evil in Cities or Nations which is an evil of punishment, but whoever be the instruments to bring it, God is the Author of it. These phrases also signified to those Iews, that God was likeliest to know best how long they should stay there because he sent them thither.
