Matthew Poole and continuators on Lamentations 1:12

12 ¶ Is it nothing to you, all ye that pass by? behold, and see, if there be any sorrow like to my sorrow: which is done unto me, wherewith the LORD hath afflicted me in the day of his fierce anger .

The Prophet speaks in the name of the Jewish Church, as a Woman in misery sitting by the way side, and calling to passengers that came by to have compassion on her, suggesting to them, that her affliction was no ordinary affliction; nor the effect of a common and ordinary providence, but the effect of the Lords fierce anger, a most severe punishment.
