Jérémie 28:16 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 28:16

Therefore thus saith the Lord
Because of this heinous offence, in lying in the name of the Lord, and deceiving the people: behold, I will cast thee from off the face of the earth;
with the utmost indignation and abhorrence, as not worthy to live upon it: it signifies that he should die, and that not a natural, but violent death, by the immediate hand of God, by some judgment upon him; and so be by force taken off the earth, and buried in it, and be no more seen on it: this year thou shalt die;
within the present year, reckoning from this time; so that, had he died any time within twelve months from hence, it would have been sufficient to have verified the prophecy: because thou hast taught rebellion against the Lord;
to despise his word by his prophet; to contradict his will; to refuse subjection to the king of Babylon; to neglect his instructions, directions, and exhortations; and to believe a lie.

Jérémie 28:16 In-Context

14 Car ainsi a dit l'Éternel des armées, le Dieu d'Israël: J'ai mis un joug de fer sur le cou de toutes ces nations, pour qu'elles soient asservies à Nébucadnetsar, roi de Babylone, et elles lui seront asservies; et même je lui ai donné les bêtes des champs.

15 Puis Jérémie, le prophète, dit à Hanania, le prophète: Écoute, Hanania! l'Éternel ne t'a pas envoyé; mais tu as fait que ce peuple a mis sa confiance dans le mensonge.

16 C'est pourquoi ainsi a dit l'Éternel: Voici, je te rejette de dessus la terre; tu mourras cette année; car tu as prêché la révolte contre l'Éternel.

17 Et Hanania, le prophète, mourut cette année-là, au septième mois.
