Midrash sobre Jeremías 28:6

R. Huna Hakohen (“the priest”) stated in the name of R. Aha: This is proven by what occurred at the time Jeremiah said: Bring your necks under the yoke of the king of Babylon, and serve him and his people, and live (Jer. 27:12). Hananiah the son of Azzur, the false prophet, had prophesied good tidings, as it is said: And they have healed the hurt of the daughters of my people lightly, saying peace when there is no peace (ibid. 8:11), and he had told them also: Behold, the vessels of the house of the Lord shall now shortly be brought again from Babylon (ibid. 27:16). Thereupon Jeremiah exclaimed: I prophesy evil in accordance with the word of the Holy One, blessed be He, while you prophesy good tidings falsely of your own accord. Yet may it be that the Lord fulfill the words which thou hast prophesied, to bring back the vessels of the Lord’s house (ibid. 28:6).
