Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Jeremiah 29:16

_ _ people ... in this city ... not gone forth — So far from your returning to Jerusalem soon, even your brethren still left dwelling there shall themselves also be cast into exile. He mentions “the throne of David,” lest they should think that, because David’s kingdom was to be perpetual, no severe, though temporary, chastisements could interpose (Psalms 89:29-36).

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Jeremiah 29:15-23.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes
