Jer 22:24-28
SEV Biblia
(después que salió el rey Jeconías y la reina, y los de palacio, y los príncipes de Judá y de Jerusalén, y los artífices, y los ingenieros de Jerusalén),
Matthew Henry Commentary
- A false prophet opposes Jeremiah. (Jer. 28:1-9) The false prophe warned of his approaching death. (Jer. 28:10-17)
Jer. 28:1-9 Hananiah spoke a false prophecy. Here is not a word of goo counsel urging the Jews to repent and return to God. He promise temporal mercies, in God's name, but makes no mention of the spiritual mercies which God always promised with earthly blessings. This was no the first time Jeremiah had prayed for the people, though he prophesie against them. He appeals to the event, to prove Hananiah's falsehood The prophet who spake only of peace and prosperity, without adding tha they must not by wilful sin stop God's favours, will be proved a fals prophet. Those who do not declare the alarming as well as the encouraging parts of God's word, and call men to repentance, and faith and holiness, tread in the steps of the false prophets. The gospel of Christ encourages men to do works meet for repentance, but gives n encouragement to continue in sin.
Jer. 28:10-17 Hananiah is sentenced to die, and Jeremiah, when he ha received direction from God, boldly tells him so; but not before he received that commission. Those have much to answer for, who tel sinners that they shall have peace, though they harden their hearts i contempt of God's word. The servant of God must be gentle to all men He must give up even his right, and leave the Lord to plead his cause Every attempt of ungodly men to make vain the purposes of God, will ad to their miseries _________________________________________________
