The book of Lamentations is marked by its tone of mourning, loss, defeat, and heartache. As morose as it is, it is representative of the valleys we face in a broken world. Rev. Dr. R. Reed Lessing, published author and former seminary professor, is here to walk you through this valley, providing an original translation, meticulous grammatical analysis, historical context, theological insights, and relevant interpretations. This work is a part of the Concordia Commentary series, which seeks to enable pastors, professors, and teachers of the Word to proclaim the Gospel with greater insight, clarity, and faithfulness to the divine intent of the biblical text.
