Jeremiah
Lamentations 3:61BSB·traditional attribution
O LORD, You have heard their insults, all their plots against me—
John Calvin Reformed
We see that this is a repetition, but for vengeances he now mentions reproaches And in this way he sought again to turn God to mercy; for when he brings no aid, he seems to close his eyes and to render his ears deaf; but when he attends to our evils, he then soon brings help.
Matthew Henry Presbyterian
Faith and fear wrestled in the Prophet's breast throughout this lament, but faith gets the last word. He found God heard his prayers even from the lowest dungeon; his weeping never hindered his praying. From such depths a man may find a way of access to God in the highest heavens.
