When God said, “before I formed you…” He was clearly speaking of a beginning time of man’s existence.

Foreknowledge does not support the idea of a p...
God often spoke and gave revelation through His foreknowledge. Consider this prophecy given to Isaiah: Isaiah 44:28That saith of Cyrus, He is my shepherd, and shall perform all my pleasure: even saying to Jerusalem, Thou shalt be built; and to the temple, Thy foundation shall be laid. Isaiah 45:1Thus saith the LORD to his anointed, to Cyrus, whose ...

Great is the LORD, and greatly to be p...

Before I formed thee in the belly, i.e. womb, Isaiah 46:3. Having spoken before of the time of his call, Jeremiah 1:4, he now speaks of the manner of it.
