Jer 28:1-17.
英文原文
Jer 28:1-17.
PROPHECIES IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING THOSE IN THE TWENTY-SEVENTH CHAPTER. HANANIAH BREAKS THE YOKES TO SIGNIFY THAT NEBUCHADNEZZAR'S YOKE SHALL BE BROKEN. JEREMIAH FORETELLS THAT YOKES OF IRON ARE TO SUCCEED THOSE OF WOOD, AND THAT HANANIAH SHALL DIE.
1. in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah--The Jews often divided any period into two halves, the beginning and the end. As Zedekiah reigned eleven years, the fourth year would be called the beginning of his reign, especially as during the first three years affairs were in such a disturbed state that he had little power or dignity, being a tributary; but in the fourth year he became strong in power.
Hananiah--Another of this name was one of the three godly youths who braved Nebuchadnezzar's wrath in the fear of God
(Da 1:6, 7; 3:12).
Probably a near relation, for Azariah is associated with him; as Azur with the Hananiah here. The godly and ungodly are often in the same family
(Eze 18:14-20).
Gibeon--one of the cities of the priests, to which order he must have belonged.

2. 折断了轭——我已定意折断：指耶利米的预言
(耶 27:12)。
英文原文
2. broken the yoke--I have determined to break: referring to Jeremiah's prophecy
(Jer 27:12).

3. 整整两年——字面作"日子之年"。正如"日子的一个月"，即整整一个月的日子
(Ge 29:14
旁注；
Ge 41:1)。
在毫无任何属天启示的情形下，竟能如此断言，实属骇人的狂妄。
英文原文
3. two full years--literally, "years of days." So "a month of days," that is, all its days complete
(Ge 29:14,
Margin;
Ge 41:1).
It was marvellous presumption to speak so definitely without having any divine revelation.

4. 带回……耶哥尼雅——并不一定暗示哈拿尼雅希望耶哥尼雅取代西底家。要点在于从巴比伦的归回将是完全的。但无疑这假先知预言耶哥尼雅将归回
(2Ki 24:12-15)，
为要讨好百姓，因耶哥尼雅深得民心（参
Jer 22:24)。
英文原文
4. bring again . . . Jeconiah--not necessarily implying that Hananiah wished Zedekiah to be superseded by Jeconiah. The main point intended was that the restoration from Babylon should be complete. But, doubtless, the false prophet foretold Jeconiah's return
(2Ki 24:12-15),
to ingratiate himself with the populace, with whom Jeconiah was a favorite (see on
Jer 22:24).

5. 先知耶利米——"先知"这称谓在本章中加在"耶利米"之前，与"哈拿尼雅"前同样的称谓相应；惟独
Jer 28:12
的"先知"是英文译本插入的。真假先知之争由此更显突出地对照。
英文原文
5. the prophet Jeremiah--the epithet, "the prophet," is prefixed to "Jeremiah" throughout this chapter, to correspond to the same epithet before "Hananiah"; except in
Jer 28:12,
where "the prophet" has been inserted in English Version. The rival claims of the true and the false prophet are thus put in the more prominent contrast.

6. 阿们——耶利米为百姓祈祷，虽被迫说预言攻击他们
(1Ki 1:36)。
应验是矛盾预言之间所定的考验
(De 18:21, 22)。
"但愿你们所说的是真的！"我宁可要国家的安全，也不顾自己的名声。先知们并不以宣告神的审判为乐，而是作为严峻的责任如此行，并未因此摒弃他们为国家的祸患而悲伤的自然感情。比较
Ex 32:32； Ro 9:3，
这些例子说明神的仆人如何专心于神的荣耀和国家的拯救，忘却自己，在一种出神的情怀中发出心愿。照样，耶利米虽作为犹太人为他的百姓发出心愿，却不愿减少神的话语一丝一毫[CALVIN]。
英文原文
6. Amen--Jeremiah prays for the people, though constrained to prophesy against them
(1Ki 1:36).
The event was the appointed test between contradictory predictions
(De 18:21, 22).
"Would that what you say were true!" I prefer the safety of my country even to my own estimation. The prophets had no pleasure in announcing God's judgment, but did so as a matter of stern duty, not thereby divesting themselves of their natural feelings of sorrow for their country's woe. Compare
Ex 32:32; Ro 9:3,
as instances of how God's servants, intent only on the glory of God and the salvation of the country, forgot self and uttered wishes in a state of feeling transported out of themselves. So Jeremiah wished not to diminish aught from the word of God, though as a Jew he uttered the wish for his people [CALVIN].

8. 先知……在我以前——何西阿、约珥、阿摩司等人。
灾祸——少数抄本作"饥荒"，因饥荒常与战争和瘟疫并列
(Jer 15:2; 18:21; 27:8, 13)。
但此处的灾祸包括由战争而来的一切灾祸，不仅是饥荒，也包括荒凉等。灾祸是较难的读法，因此不可能是抄入的，饥荒大概源自抄录平行经文时的混入。
英文原文
8. prophets . . . before me--Hosea, Joel, Amos, and others.
evil--a few manuscripts, read "famine," which is more usually associated with the specification of war and pestilence
(Jer 15:2; 18:21; 27:8, 13).
But evil here includes all the calamities flowing from war, not merely famine, but also desolation, &c. Evil, being the more difficult reading, is less likely to be the interpolated one than famine, which probably originated in copying the parallel passages.

9. peace（平安）——哈拿尼雅没有发出需要悔改的警告，而是无条件地预言繁荣。耶利米并不是说，凡在任何事上预言真理的，就都是真先知（这一点
De 13:1, 2
已予反驳）；他只是断言其反面，即凡如哈拿尼雅那样预言了事件所未证实之事的，就是假先知。 先知有两个考验：（1）事件，
De 18:22。
（2）神的话语，
Isa 8:20。
英文原文
9. peace--Hananiah had given no warning as to the need of conversion, but had foretold prosperity unconditionally. Jeremiah does not say that all are true prophets who foretell truths in any instance (which
De 13:1, 2,
disproves); but asserts only the converse, namely, that whoever, as Hananiah, predicts what the event does not confirm, is a false prophet. There are two tests of prophets: (1) The event,
De 18:22.
(2) The word of God,
Isa 8:20.

10. the yoke（轭）——
(Jer 27:2)。
亵渎的狂妄，竟敢折断神所设立作为祂话语应验之庄严保证的物。因此耶利米不屑回答
(Jer 28:11; Mt 7:6)。
英文原文
10. the yoke--
(Jer 27:2).
Impious audacity to break what God had appointed as a solemn pledge of the fulfilment of His word. Hence Jeremiah deigns no reply
(Jer 28:11; Mt 7:6).

11. neck of all nations（万国的颈项）——与

11. neck of all nations--opposed to
Jer 27:7.

13. Thou hast broken . . . wood . . . thou shalt make . . . iron（你折断了……木的……你必造……铁的）——不是"你折断了……木的"，"我必造……铁的"（参
Jer 28:16)。
那些假先知因怂恿犹太人叛变，使他们脱下当时相对轻的巴比伦之轭，结果反而招致那城所加的更重的轭。"铁轭"暗指
De 28:48。
宁可背上轻省的十字架顺服前行，也不可自惹更重的轭压在头上。顺服叫人谦卑的护理，便能逃避那毁灭人的护理。属灵上也是如此，将基督的"容易的轭"与律法的"奴仆的轭"作对比
(Ac 15:10; Ga 5:1)。
英文原文
13. Thou hast broken . . . wood . . . thou shalt make . . . iron--Not here, "Thou hast broken . . . wood," and "I will make . . . iron" (compare
Jer 28:16).
The same false prophets who, by urging the Jews to rebel, had caused them to throw off the then comparatively easy yoke of Babylon, thereby brought on them a more severe yoke imposed by that city. "Yokes of iron," alluding to
De 28:48.
It is better to take up a light cross in our way, than to pull a heavier on our own heads. We may escape destroying providences by submitting to humbling providences. So, spiritually, contrast the "easy yoke" of Christ with the "yoke of bondage" of the law
(Ac 15:10; Ga 5:1).

14. I have put（我已经将）——虽然哈拿尼雅和他一类的人在犹大身上加上铁轭只是次要器皿，神却是伟大的首要原因
(Jer 27:4-7)。
英文原文
14. I have put--Though Hananiah and those like him were secondary instruments in bringing the iron yoke on Judea, God was the great First Cause
(Jer 27:4-7).

15. makest . . . trust in a lie（使……信靠虚谎）——

无标题
16. this year . . . die（今年……死）——预言是在第五月说的
(Jer 28:1)；
哈拿尼雅的死发生在第七月，即预言后两个月之内，这正与哈拿尼雅预言巴比伦之轭将在两年内结束的可怖意义相对。
rebellion（背叛）——反对神明明的指示，即人人都当顺服巴比伦
(Jer 29:32)。
英文原文
16. this year . . . die--The prediction was uttered in the fifth month
(Jer 28:1);
Hananiah's death took place in the seventh month, that is, within two months after the prediction, answering with awful significance to the two years in which Hananiah had foretold that the yoke imposed by Babylon would end.
rebellion--opposition to God's plain direction, that all should submit to Babylon
(Jer 29:32).
耶 28:1-17。
紧接第二十七章之后的预言。哈拿尼雅折断轭，以示尼布甲尼撒的轭必被折断。耶利米预言木轭之后将有铁轭继之，并预言哈拿尼雅必死。
1. 西底家作王初年——犹太人常将一段时间分为两半——起头和末了。西底家既作王十一年，第四年便可称为他作王的起初，特别是因为头三年间局势动荡，他作为藩属几无权势尊荣可言；但到了第四年他权势渐强。
哈拿尼雅——同名的另有一位，是那三位敬畏神、不惧尼布甲尼撒怒气的敬虔少年人之一
(但 1:6, 7；3:12)。
大概是近亲，因为亚撒利雅与他同列；正如这里的哈拿尼雅与亚苏同列。敬虔的与不敬虔的常在同一家中
(结 18:14-20)。
基遍——是祭司的城邑之一，他必属祭司阶次。
