The Key Word — נָבִיא, ha.na.Vi'generated
The Hebrew word נָבִיא (na.bi') means 'prophet' and refers to someone who speaks on behalf of God. This term encompasses a range of individuals, from true prophets delivering God's messages to false prophets leading people astray. The root suggests a bubbling forth of words, indicating the spontaneous nature of prophetic speech.
In this verse, the use of נָבִיא emphasizes the role of Jeremiah as a spokesperson for God, contrasting with Hananiah's claims. It highlights the authority and responsibility that comes with being a prophet, especially in a public setting.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, so the BSB is the wording every comparison below is made against.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main verb of the verse is וַיֹּ֙אמֶר֙, and he said, which governs the entire sentence. The structure includes two noun phrases (the subject and the object) and several prepositional phrases that provide context about the setting and audience.
The word order places emphasis on the act of speaking, with Jeremiah's reply highlighted as the central action. The assembly of priests and people in the temple underscores the communal aspect of prophetic declarations.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The Septuagint uses the Greek word εἶπεν (eipen) to translate וַיֹּ֙אמֶר֙, indicating a straightforward rendering of the Hebrew term for 'said.' This choice maintains the directness of Jeremiah's response.
The LXX does not include a direct equivalent for the term נָבִיא, which may suggest a broader interpretation of prophetic roles in the Greek context, emphasizing the act of speaking rather than the title itself.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
Jeremiah 28:5 tells us that the prophet Jeremiah spoke to another prophet named Hananiah in front of the priests and all the people gathered in the house of the LORD. This moment highlights the role of both prophets in communicating God's messages to the community.
Frequently Asked Questionsgenerated

The temple is a central place of worship and authority in Israel, making it a fitting backdrop for prophetic declarations and the public accountability of the prophets.
Being a prophet involves speaking on behalf of God, delivering messages that may challenge or affirm the beliefs of the community, and holding a position of spiritual authority.
Jeremiah is recognized as a true prophet delivering God's messages, while Hananiah represents a false prophet whose words may lead the people astray, highlighting the need for discernment in spiritual matters.

(6.) One of the “greater prophets” of the Old Testament, son of Hilkiah (q.v.), a priest of Anathoth (Jer. 1:1; 32:6). He was called to the prophetical office when still young (1:6), in the thirteenth year of Josiah…

One of the chief prophets of the Old Testament, prophesied under Josiah, Jehoiakim, and Zedekiah, and also after the captivity of the latter. He was born at Anathoth, of the race of the priests, and was destined of God to be a prophet, and consecrated for that object before his birth, Jer 1:1,5. At an early age he was called to act as a prophet, B. C. 628, in the thirteenth year of King Josiah. This good king no doubt cooperated with him to promote the reformation of the people; but the subsequent life of the prophet was full of afflictions and persecutions. Jehoiakim threw his prophetic roll into the fire, and sought his life. Zedekiah was kindly instructed by him, and warned of the woes impending over his guilty people, and of their seventy years’ captivity, but to no purpose. The fidelity of the prophet often endangered his life…

Prophet
(Heb. nabi, from a root meaning “to bubble forth, as from a fountain,” hence “to utter”, comp. Ps. 45:1). This Hebrew word is the first and the most generally used for a prophet. In the time of Samuel another word, ro’eh, “seer”, began to be used (1 Sam. 9:9). It occurs seven times in reference to Samuel. Afterwards another word, hozeh, “seer” (2 Sam. 24:11), was employed. In 1 Ch. 29:29 all these three words are used: “Samuel the seer (ro’eh), Nathan the prophet (nabi’), Gad the seer” (hozeh). In Josh. 13:22 Balaam is called (Heb.) a kosem “diviner,” a word used only of a false…
The ordinary Hebrew word for prophet is nabi , derived from a verb signifying "to bubble forth" like a fountain; hence the word means one who announces or pours forth the declarations of God. The English word comes from the Greek prophetes (profetes), which signifies in classical Greek one who speaks for another , especially one who speaks for a god , and so interprets his will to man; hence its essential meaning is "an interpreter." The use of the word in its modern sense as "one who predicts" is post-classical. The larger sense of interpretation has not, however, been lost. In fact the English word ways been used in a closer sense. The different meanings or shades of meanings in which the abstract noun is employed in Scripture have been drawn out by Locke as follows: "Prophecy comprehends three things: prediction; singing by the dictate of the Spirit; and understanding and explaining…

Prophet
(Heb. nabi, from a root meaning “to bubble forth, as from a fountain,” hence “to utter”, comp. Ps. 45:1). This Hebrew word is the first and the most generally used for a prophet. In the time of Samuel another word, ro’eh, “seer”, began to be used (1 Sam. 9:9). It occurs seven times in reference to Samuel. Afterwards another word, hozeh, “seer” (2 Sam. 24:11), was employed. In 1 Ch. 29:29 all these three words are used: “Samuel the seer (ro’eh), Nathan the prophet (nabi’), Gad the seer” (hozeh). In Josh. 13:22 Balaam is called (Heb.) a kosem “diviner,” a word used only of a false…
The ordinary Hebrew word for prophet is nabi , derived from a verb signifying "to bubble forth" like a fountain; hence the word means one who announces or pours forth the declarations of God. The English word comes from the Greek prophetes (profetes), which signifies in classical Greek one who speaks for another , especially one who speaks for a god , and so interprets his will to man; hence its essential meaning is "an interpreter." The use of the word in its modern sense as "one who predicts" is post-classical. The larger sense of interpretation has not, however, been lost. In fact the English word ways been used in a closer sense. The different meanings or shades of meanings in which the abstract noun is employed in Scripture have been drawn out by Locke as follows: "Prophecy comprehends three things: prediction; singing by the dictate of the Spirit; and understanding and explaining…

Of these, in the Old Testament, `am, is overwhelmingly the most common (about 2,000 times), with le'om, and goy, next in order; but the various Hebrew words are used with very little or no difference in force (e.g. Pr 14:28; but, on the other hand, in Ps 44 contrast verses 12 and 14). Of the changes introduced by the Revised Version (British and American) the only one of significance (cited explicitly in the Preface to the English Revised Version) is the frequent use of the plural "peoples" (strangely avoided in the King James Version except Re 10:11; 17:15), where other nations than Israel are in question.

In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions.

יְהֹוָה (ye.ho.vah) is the proper name of the God of Israel, often rendered as Jehovah or the Lord. It signifies the self-existent or eternal nature of God.

Some scholars suggest it derives from a root meaning 'to bring into being.'
