Jamieson, Fausset & Brown · 1871
Lam 1:8 · Douay-Rheims
“Heth. Jerusalem hath grievously sinned, therefore is she become unstable: all that honoured her have despised her, because they have seen her shame: but she sighed and turned backward.”
On this verse:
“(Kg1 8:46). is removed--as a woman separated from the congregation of God for legal impurity, which is a type of moral impurity. So Lam 1:17; Lev 12:2; Lev 15:19, &c. her nakedness--They have treated her as contumeliously as courtesans from whom their clothes are stripped. turneth backward--as modest women do from shame, that is, she is cast down from all hope of restoration [CALVIN].”
