The Iron Yoke of Babylon
Jeremiah 28:12-14
12
But shortly after Hananiah the prophet had broken the yoke off his neck, the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah:
13
“Go and tell Hananiah that this is what the LORD says: ‘You have broken a yoke of wood, but in its place you have fashioned a yoke of iron.’
14
For this is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: ‘I have put a yoke of iron on the neck of all these nations to make them serve Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and they will serve him. I have even given him control of the beasts of the field.’”
