LAMENTATIONS CHAPTER 5 A humble prayer, presenting to the Lord their great misery, Lamentations 5:1-15, confessing their sins, Lamentations 5:16-18, imploring deliverance, Lamentations 5:19-22. It hath been before observed, that it is very frequent in Scripture to express those acts which are reasonably consequent to the exercise of our exterior or interior senses, by terms which signify the exercise of those senses. That which the prophet here prayeth for is God's freeing the Jews from those calamities which oppressed them; this he prayeth for under the notion of God's remembering them, and beholding their reproach.
