Lament does not seem to be a pervasive feature of the New
Testament, particularly when viewed in relation to the Old
Testament. A careful investigation of the New Testament, however,
reveals that it thoroughly incorporates the pattern of Old
Testament lament into its proclamation of the gospel, especially in
the person of Jesus Christ as he both prays and embodies lament. As
an act that fundamentally calls upon God to be faithful to God's
promises to Israel and to the church, lament in the New Testament
becomes a prayer of longing for God's kingdom, which has been
inaugurated in the ministry and resurrection of Jesus, fully to
come.
