Paper 1 · Prophecy in Israel
Jeremiah walked about Jerusalem wearing a wooden yoke on his neck in order to urge Judah to...
Aabandon the ploughing of the fields during the year of drought
Brelease the Hebrew slaves that had been taken back into service
Csubmit to the king of Babylon rather than resist him
Dmourn the death of King Josiah in the battle at Megiddo
Explanation: The yoke pictured servitude to Babylon, and Jeremiah argued that accepting it was the way to survive. Hananiah, who opposed him, took the yoke off his neck and broke it, which shows that the same dramatic method was available to prophets who disagreed.
