Footnotes

  1. 50 There is no certain explanation for the triple repetition of the word “land” here. F. B. Huey (Jeremiah, Lamentations [], ) suggests the idea of exasperation, but exasperation at what? Their continued apostasy which made these exiles necessary? Or exasperation at their pitiful hopes of seeing Jeconiah restored? Perhaps “pitiful, pitiful, pitiful land of Judah” would convey some of the force of the repetition without being any more suggestive of why the land is so addressed.
