Lamentações de Jeremias 1:1-22 NVIPT

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Lamentations 1:12-22

The Lament of the City and the Answer of the Lord v. 12. Is it nothing to you, all ye that pass by? Will none of those who are witnesses of her misery and shame take the proper notice of her calamity? Behold and see if there be any sorrow like unto my sorrow which is done unto me, wherewith the Lord hath afflicted me in the day of His fierce anger. The greatness of Jerusalem's misery was so unusual that men seeing it were bound to conclude that there was a special hand and work of God in it.... read more

Lamentation Of The Daughter Of Zion Over The Ruin Of Jerusalem And Judah [or Rather, The Lamentation Of The Daughter Of Jerusalem Over The Destruction Of The City, The Nation And The Temple.—W. H. H.].[The song is naturally divided into two parts of equal length. Lamentations 1:1-11 describe the wretched condition of the city. Lamentations 1:12-22 are, more strictly, the lamentation over this condition. In both sections the speaker is the ideal person of the genius or daughter of the city, who... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Lamentations 1:1-22

In the Septuagint, the Lamentations are prefixed with the words, "And it came to pass that after Israel had been carried away captive, and Jerusalem made desolate, Jeremiah sat weeping, and lamented this lament over Jerusalem and said. . . ." In this brief Book of Lamentation the spirit of the man is strikingly revealed. There is no exultation over the fulfilment of his predictions, and there is a twofold loyalty manifest throughout, first to God in the confession of sin, and then to his... read more

The Lamentations of Jeremiah Lamentations 1:1-18 INTRODUCTORY WORDS 1. The compassionate Christ. Even now we can, in our imagination, see the Lord Jesus Christ as He wept over Jerusalem. We can hear His mournful words: "If thou hadst known, even thou at least in this thy day, the things which belong unto thy peace! but now they are hid from thine eyes." Then the Lord went on to tell the things which were about to befall Jerusalem. He prophesied saying: "The days shall come upon thee, that... read more

James Nisbet's Church Pulpit Commentary - Lamentations 1:12

SORROW UNPARALLELED‘See if there be any sorrow like unto my sorrow.’ Lamentations 1:12 I. The full instruction of the Lamentations of Jeremiah can be understood only by a consideration of the previous state and position of the prophet himself.—Joyous, hopeful, and confident, are the words of Isaiah; but the language of Jeremiah is just the reverse. He lived at a time when his country was polluted by corruption and sin; when the throne of Judah had long been held by monarchs unworthy to occupy... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Lamentations 1:1-7

The Prophet Pines Over What Jerusalem Has Lost (Lamentations 1:1-7 ). In these opening verses (Lamentations 1:1-7) Jerusalem is pictured by the writer in terms of how it now was, an empty city, a widow and forced-labourer (helpless people subject to the winds of fortune), one who was despised by the nations, her people in exile, her worship non-existent, ruled over by her enemies, her treasures all gone, and all because she had turned from the Lord and from His covenant, and had done it so... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Lamentations 1:1-11

The State Of The One-time Great City Of Jerusalem Is Described (Lamentations 1:1-11 ). The prophet here commences by bewailing the state of Jerusalem. He pines over what it has lost, and describes it in terms which bring out how much it has lost. From the political point of view it had lost its autonomy and was no longer semi-independently ruled, having become but part of a Babylonian province. From the religious point of view it had lost its status as the centre for the worship of YHWH. read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Lamentations 1:8-11

What Jerusalem Has Become (Lamentations 1:8-11 ). Having outlined what Jerusalem had lost the prophet now turns his thoughts to what she has become. She has become like a menstrual woman whose situation is visibly revealed to the world, a suggestive picture that would have brought horror to men and women alike. Menstruation was seen as something to be kept hidden and to be ashamed of. And menstruation was seen as especially horrific in Judah/Israel for it was a means by which people were... read more

Jerusalem Calls On The World To Behold Her Pitiable State (Lamentations 1:12-19 ). Lamentations 1:12 (Lamed) Is it nothing to you, all you who pass by? Behold, and see, If there be any sorrow like to my sorrow, Which is brought upon me, With which YHWH has afflicted, In the day of his fierce anger. In words that have moved the hearts of people in many generations Jerusalem calls on the world to pause as they pass by the ruined city and behold her sorrows and afflictions. And then he explains... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Lamentations 1:12-22

Jerusalem Calls On The World, And Then On YHWH, To Behold Her Condition And Cries To Him For Vengeance (Lamentations 1:12-22 ). This passage can be divided up into two parts, the first in which Jerusalem calls on the world to behold her pitiable state (Lamentations 1:12-19), and the second in which she calls on YHWH to do the same and to avenge her in accordance with what He has promised (Lamentations 1:20-22). The cry for retribution has in mind YHWH’s declaration of His intentions as... read more
