1 Hananiah prophesies falsely the return of the vessels, and
of Jeconiah.
5 Jeremiah, wishing it to be true, shews that the event will
declare the true prophets.
10 Hananiah breaks Jeremiah's yoke.
12 Jeremiah tells of an iron yoke;
15 and foretells Hananiah's death.

This was doubtless grateful news to the people, who looked
upon Zedekiah only as Nebuchadnezzar's deputy. Hananiah
seems to have been more desirous of popular than regal
favor; for this prediction could not be altogether agreeable
to Zedekiah. But he was evidently a weak as well as a wicked
prince, and very generally despised.

VERSE 8
- The prophets.
As Hosea, Joel, Amos, Isaiah, Micah, Nahum, Habakkuk,
Zephaniah, and others, all of whom had denounced similar
evils against a corrupt people. So that they who opposed
Jeremiah also opposed those who preceded him; and it was
altogether unprecedented for a true prophet to promise
deliverance to a guilty nation, without calling them to
repentance.
- prophesied.

people who were prejudiced in favor of the false prophets,
who prophesied to them smooth things.

- rebellion. Heb. revolt.
* Jer 29:32 De 13:5 *margins
VERSE 17
- Hananiah.
* Isa 44:25,26 Zec 1:6
- the seventh month.
The prophecy was delivered in the fifth month, (ver. 1,) and
Hananiah died in the seventh month; exactly two months after
he had delivered his false prophecy, which he declared, in
the name of God, would be fulfilled in two years. Here then
the true prophet was demonstrated, and the false prophet
detected. The death of Hananiah, thus predicted, was God's
seal to the words of His prophet, and must have gained his
other predictions great credit among the people; though it is
evident that it did not induce them to forsake their sins and
return to the God of Israel.
