“Which think to cause my people to forget my name by their dreams which they tell every man to his neighbour, as their fathers have forgotten my name for Baal.”
The statement that false prophets cause people to forget God's name through their dreams represents spiritual amnesia. The false prophets' words erode the people's remembrance of God and replace it with false certainty. The contrast with true prophecy (which brings people back to God) shows how false prophecy actively pulls people away from God. The verse emphasizes the spiritual danger of false prophecy.
