Lamentations2:3
Ver. 3. He hath cut off in his anger all the horn of Iſrael] i. e. All the ſtrength and beauty: the royal majeſty eſpecially, Pſal. 89.24. & 132.17.
He hath drawn back his right-hand] Wherewith he was wont to ſhelter them, and to fight for them: Or, Iſraels right-hand, ſc. by diſabling them: for it is God that ſtrengtheneth and weakeneth the arm of either party, Ezek. 30.24.
And he burned againſt Jacob] Or, in Jacob: i. e. He declareth his diſpleaſure among his people as clearly as a flame of fire that is eaſily diſcernd.
