Jeremiah 28:13

Spanish RVR 1909 (Más información sobre Biblia Reina Valera 1909)

Ve, y habla á Hananías, diciendo: Así ha dicho Jehová: Yugos de madera quebraste, mas en vez de ellos harás yugos de hierro.

¿Qué significa esto?

God tells Jeremiah to tell Hananiah that breaking wooden yokes is easy, but he will face yokes made of iron, which are much harder to break. This shows that while Hananiah thinks he can escape the consequences, he will face much tougher ones instead.

Explicado para niños

Imagine you break a toy that's made of wood, thinking it’s easy. But then, someone tells you that you’ll have to deal with a toy made of metal, which is much tougher and harder to break. This verse is like that, but for grown-ups dealing with serious things.

Contexto histórico

Jeremiah wrote this during a time of political upheaval in Judah, around 586 BCE. He was prophesying to the people that the Babylonians would conquer them, and he was addressing false prophets like Hananiah who were saying otherwise.
