耶利米哀歌 3:20 RCUVSS

E.W. Bullinger's Companion Bible Notes - Lamentations 3:20

My soul. The primitive reading was "Thy soul", which the Sopherim have recorded, and state that they altered it to "My soul" (see App-33 ), considering it an offensive anthropomorphism. By so doing they destroyed the logical sequence and deep pathos of the primitive text. The three verses (Lamentations 3:19-21 ) retranslated will show this: 19) "Remember my humiliation and my misery, The wormwood and the gall 20) Yea, verily, Thou wilt remember, And Thy soul will mourn over me. 21) This I... read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Lamentations 3:1-66

Zion’s Hope in God’s MercyThis third poem is the most elaborate in structure and the most sublime in thought of all. The poet speaks not only for himself, but for the nation. The order of thought is sorrow, confession, repentance, prayer. Though consisting of 66 vv. the poem is but a little longer than the others. Three consecutive vv. are built upon each letter of the Heb. alphabet: each triplet is usually closely associated in thought, and consequently grouped together as in the RV.1-18. Zion... read more

THE MAN THAT HATH SEEN AFFLICTIONLamentations 3:1-21WHETHER we regard it from a literary, a speculative, or a religious point of view, the third and central elegy cannot fail to strike us as by far the best of the five. The workmanship of this poem is most elaborate in conception and most finished in execution, the thought is most fresh and striking, and the spiritual tone most elevated, and, in the best sense of the word, evangelical. Like Tennyson, who is most poetic when he is most artistic,... read more

Arno Gaebelein's Annotated Bible - Lamentations 3:1-66

CHAPTER 3 The Prophet’s Suffering and Distress This chapter is intensely personal. None but Jeremiah could have written these wonderful expressions of sorrow, the sorrows of the people of God into which he entered so fully, in such a way that they become his own. He shared all their afflictions, bore them himself and then was hated by them. It was the Spirit of Christ who created these feelings in the heart of the prophet. In reading these words of deep distress and the words of faith and... read more
