I will Gen 7:4; Exod 32:12; Deut 6:15; 1Kgs 13:34; Amos 9:8 this year Jer 28:3, Jer 20:6; Num 14:37, Num 16:28-35, Num 29:32; Deut 13:5-11 because Ezek 13:11-12; Acts 13:8-11 rebellion Heb. revolt, Jer 29:32; Deut 13:5 *marg. Hananiah Isa 44:25-26; Zech 1:6 the seventh month The prophecy was delivered in the fifth month (Jer 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.
