Jeremías 28:15 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 28:15

Then said Jeremiah the prophet unto Hananiah the prophet
The false prophet, as he is again called by the Targum, and in the Syriac version; where he went to him, and met with him, whether in the temple or elsewhere, is not mentioned; very probably in some public place, that there might be witnesses of what was said; for it was for the conviction of others, as well as for his own confusion, the following things are observed: hear now, Hananiah, the Lord hath not sent thee;
though he spoke in his name, and pretended a mission from him, when he had none, which was abominable wickedness: but thou makest this people to trust in a lie:
that the Lord would break off the yoke of the king of Babylon, and free the nations from servitude to him, particularly Judea; and that the king, and his princes, and people, and the vessels of the temple, carried away with him, would be returned within two years; this the people depended on as coming from the Lord, when he was not sent by him.

Jeremías 28:15 In-Context

13 «Ve y dile a Hananías: “Esto dice el Señor
: ‘Tú has quebrado un yugo de madera, pero lo has reemplazado con un yugo de hierro.

14 El Señor
de los Ejércitos Celestiales, Dios de Israel, dice: he puesto un yugo de hierro en el cuello de todas estas naciones, y las he sometido a la esclavitud del rey Nabucodonosor de Babilonia. He puesto todo bajo su control, incluso los animales salvajes’”».

15 Entonces el profeta Jeremías le dijo a Hananías: «¡Escucha, Hananías! El Señor
no te ha enviado, pero el pueblo cree tus mentiras.

16 Por lo tanto, esto dice el Señor
: “Debes morir. Tu vida terminará este mismo año porque te rebelaste contra el Señor
”».

17 Dos meses después
murió el profeta Hananías.
