**I will bring:** 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 favour; 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.

**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.

**The Lord:** This was a bold speech, in the presence of those priests and people who were prejudiced in favour of the false prophets, who prophesied to them smooth things. [Jeremiah 28:11](../../../kjv/jeremiah/28/11), [Jeremiah 14:14](../../../kjv/jeremiah/14/14), [Jeremiah 14:15](../../../kjv/jeremiah/14/15), [Jeremiah 23:21](../../../kjv/jeremiah/23/21), [Jeremiah 27:15](../../../kjv/jeremiah/27/15), [Jeremiah 29:23](../../../kjv/jeremiah/29/23), [Jeremiah 29:31](../../../kjv/jeremiah/29/31), [Jeremiah 29:32](../../../kjv/jeremiah/29/32), [1 Kings 22:23](../../../kjv/1-kings/22/23), [Ezekiel 13:2](../../../kjv/ezekiel/13/2), [Ezekiel 13:3](../../../kjv/ezekiel/13/3), [Ezekiel 13:22](../../../kjv/ezekiel/13/22), [Ezekiel 22:28](../../../kjv/ezekiel/22/28), [Lamentations 2:14](../../../kjv/lamentations/2/14), [Zechariah 13:3](../../../kjv/zechariah/13/3)

**rebellion:** Heb. revolt, [Jeremiah 29:32](../../../kjv/jeremiah/29/32), [Deuteronomy 13:5](../../../kjv/deuteronomy/13/5), *marg.
**Reciprocal:** [Genesis 39:9](../../../kjv/genesis/39/9) - sin [Exodus 9:5](../../../kjv/exodus/9/5) - a set time [1 Samuel 15:23](../../../kjv/1-samuel/15/23) - rebellion [1 Samuel 28:19](../../../kjv/1-samuel/28/19) - and to morrow [1 Kings 13:5](../../../kjv/1-kings/13/5) - *General* [1 Kings 13:18](../../../kjv/1-kings/13/18) - But [1 Kings 22:25](../../../kjv/1-kings/22/25) - Behold [2 Kings 2:24](../../../kjv/2-kings/2/24) - cursed them [2 Chronicles 6:23](../../../kjv/2-chronicles/6/23) - requiting [2 Chronicles 18:24](../../../kjv/2-chronicles/18/24) - Behold [Isaiah 5:18](../../../kjv/isaiah/5/18) - draw [Isaiah 9:15](../../../kjv/isaiah/9/15) - the prophet [Jeremiah 27:10](../../../kjv/jeremiah/27/10) - they [Jeremiah 27:15](../../../kjv/jeremiah/27/15) - ye [Ezekiel 13:22](../../../kjv/ezekiel/13/22) - and strengthened [Amos 2:4](../../../kjv/amos/2/4) - and their [Amos 7:17](../../../kjv/amos/7/17) - Thy wife [Malachi 2:9](../../../kjv/malachi/2/9) - before [James 3:6](../../../kjv/james/3/6) - a world

**the seventh month:** The prophecy was delivered in the fifth month - [Jeremiah 29:1](../../../kjv/jeremiah/29/1), 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.
