Son of Azzur • Kingdom of Judah
Hananiah was a prophet from Gibeon who publicly opposed Jeremiah during the reign of Zedekiah. He proclaimed that Babylon's power would soon be broken and that the temple vessels would return from exile. Jeremiah declared that Hananiah had spoken falsely, and Hananiah died later that year according to the word of the Lord.
Scripture: Jeremiah 28:1-17
