Jeremiah37:12

Ver. 12. Then Jeremiah went forth out of Jeruſalem] Where he ſaw there was ſo little good to be done by his Miniſtry. This, ſome think, was an infirmity in him. Mr. Greenham, upon ſuch a ground as this, was perſwaded to leave his charge at dry-Draiton in Cambridgeſhire, and to go to live at London, where he dyed of the plague: and as ſome reported, repented on his death-bed of having ſo done.

To go into the Land of Benjamin] To Anathoth his own home: and if he went thither for his one ſafety or conveniency ſake, why might he not?

To ſeparate himſelf thence in the middeſt of the people] Ʋt lubricificaret exinde in medio populi, that he might ſlide or ſlip away thence in the throng, undiſcerned.Pagnin. Vatab.
