The verse 28 is found in chapter 29 of Jeremiah. The false prophets among the exiles are confronted because of their deceptive message. Shemaiah attempts to discredit Jeremiah, but God announces judgment upon him. The section shows that the exiled community must distinguish true hope from immediate promises that contradict the divine word.
Meditate on this verse and share your reflection or spiritual experience with the community. Your comments will enrich everyone's learning.
