Lamentations 2:3

Lam 2:3 He hath cut off in [his] fierce anger all the horn of Israel: he hath drawn back his right hand from before the enemy, and he burned against Jacob like a flaming fire, [which] devoureth round about.

Ver. 3. He hath cut off in his anger all the horn of Israel, ] i.e., All the strength and beauty, the royal majesty especially. Psalms 89:24 ; Psa 132:17

He hath drawn back his right hand. ] Wherewith he was wont to shelter them and to fight for them. Or, Israel’s right hand - scil., by disabling them; for it is God that strengtheneth and weakeneth the arm of either party. Eze 30:24

And he burned against Jacob. ] Or, In Jacob - i.e., He declareth his displeasure among his people as clearly as a flame of fire that is easily discerned.
