GOD HAS BOUND THE YOKE OF MY SINS UPON ME"See, O Jehovah, and Behold, for I am abject.Is it nothing to you, all ye that pass by?Behold, and see if there be any sorrow like unto my sorrow,which is brought upon me,Wherewith Jehovah hath afflicted me in the day of his fierce anger.From on high hath he sent fire into my bones,and it prevaileth against them;He hath spread a net for my feet, he hath turned me back.He hath made me desolate and faint all the day.The yoke of my transgression is bound by... read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Lamentations 1:1-22

Zion’s Desolation and SorrowThough the five poems contained in the book have practically the same theme—the downfall of Jerusalem—yet each poem dwells on a different phase of the subject as intimated in the opening words of each chapter This first one emphasises the desolation and misery of the city, describing it as ’solitary,’ as ’a widow,’ and as ’tributary,’ i.e. Judah has lost her independence; and there is ’no comforter,’ Lamentations 1:2, Lamentations 1:9, Lamentations 1:17, Lamentations... read more

It can scarcely be said that men are now perplexed by the problem that inspired the Book of Job. The fall of the tower of Siloam or the blindness of a man from his birth would not start among us the vexatious questions which were raised in the days of our Lord. We have not... read more
