Lamentações de Jeremias 1:15 Meaning and Commentary

Lamentations 1:15

The Lord hath trodden under foot all my mighty [men] in the
midst of me
As a causeway is trodden; or as mire is trodden under foot in the streets; so were the mighty and valiant men, the soldiers and men of war, trodden under foot and destroyed by the Chaldeans in the streets of Jerusalem, and in the midst of Judea; the Lord so permitting it: he hath called an assembly against me to crush my young men;
the army of the Chaldeans, which were brought against Jerusalem by a divine appointment and call; against whom the choicest and stoutest of them, even their young men, could not stand; but were crushed and broken to pieces by them. The word for "assembly" sometimes signifies an appointed time; a time fixed for solemn festivals, and for calling the people to them; and so the Targum here,

``he hath called or appointed a time to break the strength of my young men;''
the time of Jerusalem's destruction by the Babylonians: the Lord hath trodden the virgin, the daughter of Judah, [as] in a
winepress;
in the winepress of his wrath; or however in the winepress of the Babylonians, who are compared to one; into whose hands the Jews falling, were like grapes cast into a winepress, and there trodden by men, in order to squeeze and get out the wine; and in like manner were their blood squeezed out of them and shed. The Targum interprets it of the blood of virginity being poured out, as wine in a press; the virgins of Judah being ravished and defiled by the enemy.

Lamentações de Jeremias 1:15 In-Context

13 Do alto ele fez cair fogosobre os meus ossos.Armou uma rede para os meus pése me derrubou de costas.Deixou-me desolada,e desfalecida o dia todo.
14 Os meus pecados foram amarrados num jugo;suas mãos os ataram todos juntose os colocaram em meu pescoço;o Senhor abateu a minha força.Ele me entregou àquelesque não consigo vencer.
15 O Senhor dispersou todos os guerreirosque me apoiavam;convocou um exército contra mimpara destruir os meus jovens.O Senhor pisou no seu lagara virgem, a cidade de Judá.
16 “É por isso que eu choro;as lágrimas inundam os meus olhos.Ninguém está por perto para consolar-me,não há ninguém que restaure o meu espírito.Meus filhos estão desamparadosporque o inimigo prevaleceu”.
17 Suplicante, Sião estende as mãos,mas não há quem a console.O SENHOR decretou que os vizinhos de Jacóse tornem seus adversários;Jerusalém tornou-se coisa imunda entre eles.
