Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Lamentations 3:43-45

Samech

_ _ covered — namely, thyself (so Lamentations 3:44), so as not to see and pity our calamities, for even the most cruel in seeing a sad spectacle are moved to pity. Compare as to God “hiding His face,” Psalms 10:11; Psalms 22:25.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Lamentations 3:42-54.
