2 Cronache 35:25 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 35:25

And Jeremiah lamented for Josiah
Composed a lamentation for him, which is now lost; for what is said in ( Lamentations 4:20 ) respects Zedekiah, and not Josiah:

and all the singing men, and all the singing women, spake of Josiah in
their lamentations unto this day;
who were made use of on mournful occasions, as the "preficae" among the Romans, see ( Jeremiah 9:17 ) these in their mournful ditties used to make mention of his name, and the disaster that befell him:

and made them an ordinance in Israel;
an annual constitution, as the Targum calls it, appointing a solemn mourning for him once a year, which Jarchi says was on the ninth of Ab or July:

and, behold, they are written in the lamentations;
not of Jeremiah; though the Targum is,

``lo, they are written in the book which Baruch wrote from the mouth of Jeremiah, concerning the lamentations,''

but respect a collection of lamentations on various subjects then in being, but since lost.

2 Cronache 35:25 In-Context

23 E gli arcieri tirarono al re Giosia. E il re disse a’ suoi servitori: Toglietemi di qui; perciocchè io son gravemente ferito.
24 E i suoi servitori lo tolsero d’in sul carro, e lo misero sopra il suo secondo carro, e lo menarono in Gerusalemme; ed egli morì, e fu seppellito nelle sepolture de’ suoi padri. E tutto Giuda e Gerusalemme fecero cordoglio di Giosia.
25 Geremia fece anch’egli de’ lamenti sopra Giosia. E tutti i cantatori e le cantatrici hanno mentovato Giosia ne’ lor lamenti, fino ad oggi; e li hanno dati a cantare ad Israele per istatuto; ed ecco, sono scritti nelle Lamentazioni.
26 Ora, quant’è al rimanente de’ fatti di Giosia, e le sue opere pie, secondo quello ch’è scritto nella Legge del Signore,
27 e i suoi fatti primi ed ultimi; ecco, queste cose sono scritte nel libro dei re d’Israele e di Giuda.
