Lamentations: Out of the Ashes - Ch 2
Manage episode 449435251 series 1744055
Lamentations chapter 2 continues the writer’s reflection on God’s divine punishment of Jerusalem. The fall of Jerusalem was an act of divine justice, intended to repay a wayward people for their rebellion. It was also love, intended to chasten God’s people to turn them away from their sins. Through sufferings of defeat and exile, God’s people could finally learn not to place their confidence in kings or temples, but only in God Himself. “For the Lord disciplines the one He loves and chastises every son whom He receives.” Hebrews 12:6
