Listen to Jeremia 28:14

Jeremia 28:14 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 28:14

For thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel
Under which titles he is often spoken of; and which he uses, when he delivered anything to his prophets to declare in his name to others: I have put a yoke of iron upon the neck of all these nations:
mentioned in ( Jeremiah 27:3 ) ; that they may serve Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and they shall
serve him;
directly contrary to what Hananiah had prophesied, ( Jeremiah 28:11 ) ; that his yoke should be broke off from them; but instead of that, it should become heavier unto them, and they should be obliged to serve him, whether they would or not; and refusing to pay tribute to him, should be carried captive by him, as had been foretold: and I have given him the beasts of the field also;
as he had said he would, ( Jeremiah 27:6 ) ; and which is repeated, to show that the whole would be punctually fulfilled; that not only those nations, the men, the inhabitants of them, would be delivered to him; but even the very cattle, and all that belonged to them.

Jeremia 28:14 In-Context

12 Und das Wort Jehovas geschah zu Jeremia, nachdem der Prophet Hananja die Jochstäbe vom Halse des Propheten Jeremia zerbrochen hatte, also:
13 Geh und sprich zu Hananja und sage: So spricht Jehova: Hölzerne Jochstäbe hast du zerbrochen, aber an ihrer Statt eiserne Jochstäbe gemacht.
14 Denn so spricht Jehova der Heerscharen, der Gott Israels: Ein eisernes Joch habe ich auf den Hals aller dieser Nationen gelegt, damit sie Nebukadnezar, dem König von Babel, dienen, und sie werden ihm dienen; und auch die Tiere des Feldes habe ich ihm gegeben.
15 Und der Prophet Jeremia sprach zu dem Propheten Hananja: Höre doch, Hananja! Jehova hat dich nicht gesandt, sondern du hast dieses Volk auf eine Lüge vertrauen lassen.
16 Darum, so spricht Jehova: Siehe, ich werfe dich vom Erdboden hinweg; dieses Jahr wirst du sterben; denn du hast Abfall geredet wider Jehova.
