Matthew Poole and continuators on Jeremiah 28:13

13 Go and tell Hananiah, saying, Thus saith the LORD, Thou hast broken the yokes of wood, but thou shalt make for them yokes of iron .

Ieremiah seeing the impudence of Hananiah, and that his further discourse with him would do no good, but it may be have caused more danger to himself, prophesying what was more ingrateful to the people, then what the false Prophet prophesied, and possibly desirous further to know the will of God withdrew himself. Soon after God sends him back to the people, and to Hananiah with this message; That he by his false Prophesie had done the people no good, but much hurt, further incensed God against them, and provoked him to make their judgment heavier, giving them iron yokes, instead of those of wood.
