Lamentations 1:1-6; 3:19-26, Commentary, Background, Insights from Literary Structure,
Theological Message, Ways to Present the Text. Anna Grant-Henderson, Uniting
Church in Australia.
- "A lament can be an expression of anger, despair, blame, grief, hopelessness and many other feelings. This city is feeling all the pain and loss suffered by those who are devastated by war. The fact that they may have brought it on themselves by their rebellion against Babylon does not lessen the severe feelings evoked by all their losses."
