Evan Shively- Class Readings Bible


Lamentations 3.10 
He is a bear lying in wait for me,
A lion in hiding; 
he led me off my way and tore me to pieces;
he has made me desolate;
he bent his bow and set me
as a mark for his arrow

This verse in lamentations reminds me of when we watched the seventh seal. The same thoughts that were so prevalent in the days in which lamentations was written is quite similar to the plague that these people must be going through. The faith that they once had was made weak by the amount of pain and suffering they dealt with. Blok feels that God cannot be real after what he has witnessed. The religious feelings of doubt and lamentation are a deeply spiritual matter.
