Fußnoten
(a)3:1 The man is Jerusalem personified, or the nation of Israel personified. In Lamentations, the text sometimes uses the first person singular as if Jerusalem were speaking.(Conte)
(b)3:7 Or, more literally, ‘He has aggravated my shackles.’ The repeated references to building around ‘me,’ i.e. the city of Jerusalem, indicate that the city, in the future will have very many buildings, businesses, and homes built around it, as far as the eye can see. It also indicates the metaphor of siege works being built around the city, for the city of Jerusalem, and the Faith, will be as if under siege from the surrounding secular society, culture, and politics.(Conte)
(c)3:13 The kidneys are symbolic of one’s temperament.(Conte)
(d)3:36 The Lord is ignorant of such things, in the sense that He does not do them. A lack of action is a type of ignorance, as when the Virgin Mary said that she did not know man.(Conte)
(e)3:45 Or, more literally, ‘You have set me as refuse and as an outcast in the midst of the people.’(Conte)
(f)3:51 The daughters of the city are the smaller town and cities related to Jerusalem.(Conte)
