And I will cause them to be removed into all kingdoms of the earth, because of Manasseh the son of Hezekiah king of Judah, for that which he did in Jerusalem.
I will cause them to be removed into all kingdoms of the earth - (Deuteronomy 28:25; and Ezekiel 23:46). Rather, 'I will give them up to vexation [lªza`ªwaah, from zuwa` (H2112), to vex; Habakkuk 2:7]. I will cause them to wander so as nowhere to have repose (Calvin). The same Hebrew is translated in 2 Chronicles 29:8, "trouble;" margin, 'commotion').
Because of Mannasseh - he was now dead, but the effects of his sins still remained. How much evil one bad man can cause! The evil fruits remain even after he himself has received repentance and forgiveness. The people had followed his wicked example ever since; and it is implied that it was only through the long-suffering of God that the penal consequences had been suspended up to the present time (cf. the case of "Jeroboam, who did sin, and who made Israel to sin," 1 Kings 14:16. As to Manasseh see 2 Kings 21:11; 2 Kings 23:26; 2 Kings 24:3-4).
