Lamentations is a book that is like funeral sorrow let loose on the world. It is pain and grief and sorrow for 5 chapters. It is questioning God and hoping someone stops to hear and help. Lamentations in Hebrew is EKAH (HOW).
One of the recurring questions from the book of Lamentations is "who can heal you?" In the New Testament, when Jesus arrives on the scene, this question is plainly answered then as it is today. Jesus redeems, He heals, He renews, He restores. As we go through the book of Lamentations you may have many questions about the misery of not only the book, but also the hard times in your life. Scripture is constantly pointing somewhere, to someone, who can heal us. It is Jesus.
