The Scofield Bible Commentary: Lamentations: Lamentations Introduction
The Scofield Bible Commentary, by Cyrus Ingerson Scofield, [1917]
Book Introduction - Lamentations
The touching significance of this book lies in the fact that it is the disclosure of the love and sorrow of Jehovah for the very people who He is chastening--a sorrow wrought by the Spirit in the heart of Jeremiah (Jer 13:17; Mat 23:36; Mat 23:38; Rom 9:1-5).
The chapters indicate the analysis, viz., five lamentations.
