A false prophet who told people what they wanted to hear — and died for it
While Jeremiah was warning that Babylon's exile would last 70 years, Hananiah publicly contradicted him, prophesying that God would break Babylon's power within two years (Jeremiah 28). He even dramatically broke the wooden yoke off Jeremiah's neck. God's response through Jeremiah: 'You broke wooden bars, but I'll replace them with iron ones.' Hananiah died within the year, just as Jeremiah predicted.
