Contextual Overview
10 Then Hananiah, the man who told what would happen, took the cross-bar from the neck of Jeremiah the man of God and broke it. 11 And Hananiah said in front of all the people, "The Lord says, ‘In this way I will break the cross-bar of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon from the neck of all the nations within two years.'" Then Jeremiah the man of God went his way. 12 Some time after Hananiah had broken the cross-bar from off the neck of Jeremiah, the Word of the Lord came to Jeremiah, saying, 13 "Go and tell Hananiah, ‘The Lord says, "You have broken the cross-bars of wood, but you have made bars of iron in their place." 14 For the Lord of All, the God of Israel, says, "I have put the cross-bar of iron on the neck of all these nations, that they may serve Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon. And they will serve him. I have given him the animals of the field also."'" 15 Then Jeremiah who spoke for God said to Hananiah who told what would happen, "Listen, Hananiah, the Lord has not sent you. And you have made these people trust in a lie. 16 So the Lord says, ‘See, I am about to take you from the earth. This year you are going to die, because you have spoken against the right and power of the Lord.'" 17 So Hananiah, who had said these things in God's name, died in the seventh month of the same year.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Then Hananiah the prophet took the yoke from off the prophet Jeremiah's neck,.... Which he wore as a symbol of the subjection of Judea, and other nations, to the king of Babylon: an impudent and insolent action this was, to take the prophet's yoke from his neck; and the more so, as it was by the command of God that he made it, and wore it:
and brake it; being made of wood, as it afterwards appears, and so might easily be broken.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The multitude would see in Hananiah’s act a symbol of deliverance.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Jeremiah 28:10. Then Hananiah - took the yoke - and brake it. — He endeavoured by this symbolical act to persuade them of the truth of his prediction.
