Lamentações 2:6

Study

       

6 E arrancou a sua cabana com violência, como se fosse a de uma horta; destruiu o seu lugar de assembléia; o Senhor entregou ao esquecimento em Sião a assembléia solene e o sábado; e na indignação da sua ira rejeitou com desprezo o rei e o sacerdote.

Commentary

 

Day

  
Morning Sunshine, by Károly Ferenczy

Like other descriptions of time in the Word, "a day" or a number of "days" describe a spiritual state rather than our natural concept of time. A spiritual "day" describes a state of mind or a state in our relationship with the Lord rather than a 12-hour or 24-hour span of natural time. "Day" describes a state in which we are turned toward the Lord, and are receiving light (which is truth) and heat (which is a desire for good) from the Lord.
