Jeremiah 28:17 Douay-Rheims

And Hananias the prophet died in that year, in the seventh month.

Rashi

1040–1105 Jewish

in that year, in the seventh month Is it not so that the seventh month is not of the year? Rather, he died on the day preceding Rosh Hashanah and commanded his children to hurry him after Rosh Hashanah, but not before, and they should conceal his death on that day in order to make Jeremiah’s prophecy appear false.

Hebrew and Aramaic words are the commentator’s citations of the sacred text; the English translation that follows each is the translator’s.
