Show Notes

As a result of Judah’s continued and unrepentant idolatry, God allows the Babylonians to besiege, plunder, burn, and destroy the city of Jerusalem. Solomon’s Temple, which has stood for about 400 years, is burned to the ground. The Prophet Jeremiah, an eyewitness to these events, writes the Book of Lamentations as a lament for what occurs to Judah and Jerusalem. Today’s Top Ten list explores Ten Themes in the Book of Lamentations.

 

Scriptures referenced include Lamentations 1:2, 9; Lamentations 2:6-8; Proverbs 29:18; Lamentations 2:6-8; Lamentations 3:17-18; Lamentations 2:17; Psalm 51:1-2, 4; Lamentations 3: 21-24, 31-33, 40-42; Isaiah 55:6; Lamentations 3:57-58; Lamentations 5:16; Lamentations 4:11, 12, 14, 22; and Lamentations 3:21, 29, 31.
