Jeremiah, 28

1. That same year, at the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the fifth month of the fourth year, the prophet Hananiah son of Azzur, a Gibeonite, spoke as follows to Jeremiah in the Temple of Yahweh in the presence of the priests and of all the people,

2. 'Yahweh Sabaoth, the God of Israel, says this, "I have broken the yoke of the king of Babylon.

3. In exactly two years' time I shall bring back all the vessels of the Temple of Yahweh which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon took away from here and carried off to Babylon.

4. And I shall also bring back Jeconiah son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah and all the exiles of Judah who have gone to Babylon, Yahweh declares, for I shall break the yoke of the king of Babylon." '

5. The prophet Jeremiah then replied to the prophet Hananiah in front of the priests and all the people present in the Temple of Yahweh.

6. 'So be it!' the prophet Jeremiah said, 'May Yahweh do so! May he fulfil the words that you have prophesied and bring all the vessels of the Temple of Yahweh and all the exiles back to this place from Babylon.

7. Listen carefully, however, to this word that I am now going to say for you and all the people to hear:

8. From remote times, the prophets who preceded you and me prophesied war, disaster and plague for many countries and for great kingdoms;

9. the prophet who prophesies peace can be recognised as one truly sent by Yahweh only when his word comes true.'

10. The prophet Hananiah then snatched the yoke off the neck of the prophet Jeremiah and broke it.

11. In front of all the people Hananiah then said, 'Yahweh says this, "This is how, in exactly two years' time, I shall break the yoke of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and take it off the necks of all the nations." ' At this, the prophet Jeremiah went away.

12. After the prophet Hananiah had broken the yoke he had snatched off the prophet Jeremiah's neck, the word of Yahweh came to Jeremiah,

13. 'Go to Hananiah and tell him this, "Yahweh says this: You have broken the wooden yokes only to make iron yokes to replace them!

14. For Yahweh Sabaoth, the God of Israel, says this: An iron yoke is what I now lay on the necks of all these nations to enslave them to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon. (They will be enslaved to him; I have even given him the wild animals.)" '

15. The prophet Jeremiah said to the prophet Hananiah, 'Listen carefully, Hananiah: Yahweh has not sent you; and thanks to you this people is now relying on what is false.

16. And so, Yahweh says this, "I am going to send you off the face of the earth: you will die this year (since you have preached rebellion against Yahweh)." '

17. The prophet Hananiah died the same year, in the seventh month.

Verse im Zusammenhang mit Jeremiah, 28:

Jeremiah 28 reports the dispute between the prophet Hananias and Jeremiah. Hananias states that God will break the yoke of Nebuchadnezzar and that the temple utensils that were taken to Babylon would be returned soon. However, Jeremiah warns that these words are false and that captivity in Babylon would last seventy years. Below are five verses related to the topics covered in Jeremiah 28:

Jeremiah 14:14: "Then the Lord said to me, The prophets falsely prophesy in my name; I did not send them, nor give them order, nor spoke to them; false vision, and guessing, and vanity, and the deceit of his heart is what they prophesy you. " The verse warns of the existence of false prophets, such as Hananias, who deceive the people with their false words in the name of God.

Deuteronomy 13:1-3: "If you raise a prophet, or dream dreamer, and to announce you a sign or prodigy, and succeed the sign or prodigy that you have spoken to you, saying, Let us go after other gods, That you have not known, and we serve them; Thou shalt not hear the words of this prophet or dream of dreams; for the Lord your God proves to you, to know if you love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul. " This verse emphasizes the importance of not following false prophets who seek to divert the people from true worship to God.

Jeremiah 14:15: "So thus saith the Lord about the prophets who prophesy in my name, without me having sent them, and say, neither sword or hunger there will be in this earth: these prophets will be consumed by sword and hunger." The verse shows that the false prophets who speak in the name of God without being sent by Him will suffer the consequences of their false words.

Matthew 24:24: "For false Christs and false prophets will be raised, and will make great signs and wonders; in such a way that if possible, they would even deceive the chosen ones." This verse warns of the existence of false prophets who make signs and wonders to deceive people, and states that even Christians can be deceived if they are not aware.

1 John 4:1: "Beloved, do not believe the whole Spirit, but prove whether the spirits are of God; for many false prophets have come out around the world." The verse urges Christians to test spirits to verify that messages and teachings are indeed from God, for many false prophets are acting in the world.
