Jeremiah 16:13

Adam Clarke
Bible Commentary

Will I cast you out of this land - See Jeremiah 7:15, and Jeremiah 9:15.

Albert Barnes
Notes on the Whole Bible

And there shall ye … - Ironical, and “there ye may serve other gods day and night, since I will shew you no favor.”

Matthew Henry
Concise Bible Commentary
Here seems to be the language of those who quarrel at the word of God, and instead of humbling and condemning themselves, justify themselves, as though God did them wrong. A plain and full answer is given. They were more obstinate in sin than their fathers, walking every one after the devices of his heart. Since they will not hearken, they shall be hurried away into a far country, a land they know not. If they had God's favour, that would make even the land of their captivity pleasant.
