Commentators are often disturbed by the presence of various
speakers in the three poems of Lamentations 1 and 2, and Isaiah
51.9-52.2, the change of speakers being thought to disrupt the flow
of ideas. This study shows that a close reading of all three poems
in the light of their mourning ceremony setting displays a clear
and consistent flow of thought. Purported cases of 'disruption' now
fit into their present context as moments in which different
mourners voice their pains and their questions aloud, and bring
their incomprehensible sufferings to Yahweh their God and the
creator of all.>
