Contextual Overview
24 "To Sh'ma‘yah the Nechelami you are to communicate this message: 25 ‘This is a word from Adonai -Tzva'ot, the God of Isra'el, because of the letters you sent in your own name to all the people in Yerushalayim, including Tz'fanyah the son of Ma‘aseiyah the cohen and all the cohanim. 26 Your letter said, " Adonai has made you cohen in place of Y'hoyada the cohen, in order to have officials in Adonai 's house who will arrest any crazy person who makes himself out to be a prophet, so that you can restrain him in stocks and collar. 27 So why haven't you rebuked Yirmeyahu of ‘Anatot, who makes himself out to be a prophet for you? 28 He even sends word to us in Bavel saying that the exile will last a long time; so build houses and live in them, plant gardens and eat what they produce." 29 Tz'fanyah the cohen read this letter to Yirmeyahu the prophet, and afterwards 30 the word of Adonai came to Yirmeyahu, 31 instructing him to send to all those in exile this message: "Here is what Adonai says about Sh'ma‘yah the Nechelami: ‘This Sh'ma‘yah has prophesied to you, even though I did not send him, and has caused you to put your trust in a lie. 32 Because of this,' Adonai says, ‘I will punish Sh'ma‘yah the Nechelami and his offspring. He will not have a man to live among this people, and he will not see the good I am planning to do for my people,' says Adonai , ‘because he has preached rebellion against Adonai .'"'"

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Therefore thus saith the Lord,.... Because he prophesied without being sent of God, and prophesied lies, by which the people were deceived:
behold, I will punish Shemaiah the Nehelamite, and his seed; not him only, but his posterity also: thus God sometimes visits the sins of parents on their children, they being, as it were, a part of themselves, and oftentimes partners with them in their iniquities:
he shall not have a man to dwell among this people; either at Babylon, or at Jerusalem, whither he had promised a speedy return:
neither shall he behold the good that I will do for my people, saith the Lord; by returning them, after seventy years captivity, to their own land, and to the enjoyment of all their privileges, civil and religious:
because he hath taught rebellion against the Lord; or, "a departure n from [him]"; taught men to revolt from him, and not give heed to his prophets; to disbelieve what he said by them, concerning their continuance in Babylon; which is called a rebellion against him; and being so heinous a crime, deserved the punishment denounced on him and his; rebels and their offspring are punished among men.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Jeremiah 29:32. I will punish Shemaiah —
1. He shall have no posterity to succeed him.
2. His family, i.e., relations, c., shall not be found among those whom I shall bring back from captivity.
3. Nor shall he himself see the good that I shall do for my people.
And all this shall come upon him and his because he hath taught rebellion against the Lord. He excited the people to reject Jeremiah, and to receive the lying words of the false prophets and these led them to rebel.
