Jamieson, Fausset & Brown · 1871
Lam 1:17 · Douay-Rheims
“Phe. Sion hath spread forth her hands, there is none to comfort her: the Lord hath commanded against Jacob, his enemies are round about him: Jerusalem is as a menstruous woman among them.”
On this verse:
“Like a woman in labor-throes (Jer 4:31). menstruous woman--held unclean, and shunned by all; separated from her husband and from the temple (compare Lam 1:8; Lev 14:19, &c.).”
