The World English Bible (WEB): Lamentations by Anonymous
"The World English Bible (WEB): Lamentations" by Anonymous is a collection of poetic laments written shortly after 586 BCE. Five sorrowful poems mourn Jerusalem's destruction, presenting a city reduced to ruins and a people confronting overwhelming suffering. The verses acknowledge communal sin while questioning whether God has abandoned His people forever. Blending funeral dirge with communal prayer, this ancient work offers no easy comfort—only raw grief, tentative hope in divine mercy, and
the haunting possibility of final rejection. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
