Exegesis
The perfect verb khalamti {חָלַמְתִּי | ḥā-lam-tî} repeats for rhetorical emphasis, underscoring the prophets’ false proclamations under claimed divine authority.
In context — Jeremiah 23:25
I have heard what the prophets are saying—those who prophesy falsehood in My name —saying, “I have dreamed, I have dreamed.”
