Lamentations

Poems mourning the fall of Jerusalem and expressing hope in God's mercy.

Chapter 2

KJV - Lamentations 2:6

And he hath violently taken away his tabernacle, as if it were of a garden: he hath destroyed his places of the assembly: the LORD hath caused the solemn feasts and sabbaths to be forgotten in Zion, and hath despised in the indignation of his anger the king and the priest.

He forcefully took away his temporary home, like it was from a garden. He destroyed the places where people gathered. God made the special celebrations and rest days forgotten in Zion, and in his anger, he disregarded the king and the priest.
