Unlocking the Old Testament Part 41 - Lamentations

- David Pawson says that Lamentations was written by Jeremiah in tears over the state of his people. As a matter of fact, in the Greek translation of the Old Testament it is called “Tears”. David says that if you picture the desolation of Hiroshima during the second World War, that is what Jerusalem looked like to Jeremiah. He had composed a lament for the whole nation to sing when King Josiah was killed in battle as he was a poet and songwriter. The 5 chapters of Lamentations are really 5 laments and 4 of them are written in the form of an acrostic - using a letter of the alphabet to begin each section. David Pawson believes that using the alphabet actually helps an author to put his feelings in order. David sees the 5 themes of these laments as: The Catastrophe, The Cause, The Cure, The Consequences, The Cry. Jeremiah’s problem was that when God’s anger was simmering nobody would take it seriously. Then it boiled over as the consequence. God’s mercy allowed exile, not extinction. David says there are 2 destinies open to us - weeping forever or having our tears wiped away.
David also has a book on this series find out more here: www.davidpawson.co.uk/search/...

Awful is the sight of the ruined city
Blood flows down the streets
Catastrophe has come to my people
Dreadful is their fate
Every house has been destroyed
Families are broken forever
God promised he would do this
Holy is his name
I am worn out with weeping
Just broken in spirit
Let me die like the others
My life has no meaning
Never again will I laugh
Or dance for joy
Please comfort me, Lord
Quieten my spirit
Remind me of your future plans
Save your people from despair
Tell them you still love them
Understand their feelings
Vent your anger on their destroyers
Exterminate our enemies
We will again exalt your name
Zealous for your reputation
thank you for sharing. this is beautiful and brilliant acrostic poem of lamentation by david. a production of less than two minutes!!!
Thank you
David sure is a prophet. He connects the bible and all in it so perfect, it HAS to be from God. I am so thankful to be able to understand the bible (and with it God) better!
David is not a prophet, he even says so, he points out he is a teacher only. No such thing is a prophet of today.
@@bellaroccisano4156 Amen Hallelujah every time I heard his teaching I am so blessed. Yes Jesus is a good Shepherd.
I love Jeremiah story. ❤
He explained with full of God Spirit 🙏
This is precious...I so wish I had known about David's teaching years ago.❤
Amen
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
I wanted you to know that I have read through the bible 3 times now and this time being the 4th I have decided to split each part and dig deep for more of an understanding and before each part I always watch your videos to give me a better understanding on the parts I'm reading and I just wanted to tell you that I have come to see how beautiful the bible is. You have made me see it in away that I can truely relate and the way you speak about these is just amazing. Sometimes I just watch with tears running down my cheeks. I can't even find the words. Thank you.

I AM ON 3rd read through and that's a great idea...i thought i would write a one word thesis of verses that strike me
next time through and rank my favorite psalms ...and put book chapter verse of things i need more understanding...
I love GOD'S word...BLESS YOU SISTER ....GOD's speed...I ALSO WENT BY CHART OF READ THROUGH IN ONE YEAR BUT
I DID IT MUCH QUICKER BUT READING OLD AND NEW TESTAMENT IS BETTER THAN GETTING BOGGED DOWN IN
O.T. I need the N.T. to balance the HARSHNESS of O.T. and keep more joy in reading.....
It is my first read through the old testament, but I feel exactly the same way.
Spent 10 years but I have not finished reading the Bible yet
@@LinhHLe try listening to it as an audio book. I also tend to get stuck in parts like genealogies, but you can go through them surprisingly fast listening to them while doing dishes or something.
I do not know the Bible the way I should and one day by chance I end up in your teaching and since then I never left, God bless your efforts and wisdom, now am marching with God grace and his word thank you very much.
Now it makes sense. So that’s why when becoming a Christian all hell breaks loose. Forgive the enemy....so many “in” church...didn’t expect that. Walking alone is not easy, trying to get truth or truth, when it isn’t learnt in church to give. Glad I’ve found your study.
After watching this. I read lamentations. I played the sound of a rabbi singing lamentations in the background, while I read. Its soulful.
Lamentations makes me think of the great tribulation. I'm very moved. Thoughtful. Sad
I think of the end of days too. It is frightening, especially with so many false prophets.
“I want singers who are seers” wow! amazing
God in heaven how I love this precious man! He gets it so very well! Yes new earth, earth is our inheritance! We were made from it, and it was made for us!
If you have the time do listen to Davids teachings on ''Final Facts'' where he covers what the Bible (and specifically what Jesus) says about Heaven and Hell ....and as you correctly say .....the New Earth
He is a wonderful teacher. I so enjoy his teachings. I think we are now in the times of Jeremiah. As Isaiah says, they call evil what is good and good what is evil. We need to keep an eye on Jerusalem and that gives an idea of what is happening in the world, to us.
The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness” (Lamentations 3:22-23)
You’ll weep forever or have your tears wipe away.
Man, isn’t it clear ? Repent now 🙏✨
Your A-Z is amazing and powerful!! Thank you
We thank God for your wisdom
We thank God for your wisdom.
Thank you, for this great blessed introduction to Lamentations. I have been meditating on this last few days, may be last many years..you have crowned my feelings on Tears.God blessed me to correlate with my Tamil poetry and tradition and understand deeper meanings.can say more but now let me meditate more in the spirit of Divine office Lectio divina.
Absolutely powerful
David Pawsons ABC poetic synopsis of Lamentations is very interesting….and eye opening in light of Jeremiah having constructed the book using this method…..he was a wonderful teacher.
Jesus is coming soon!
Thank you David
Love the study about the music which is being played. Many professional businessmen as leaders of churches rather than the spiritual kind as well.
Thank you for teaching
Amen!
this man's voice is very satisfying to listen to, I have a harsh Northern Irish country accent that is barely understandable haha!
Never!…loveliest accent on earth 😊
As an Australian, the only time I had any respect for Bob Hawke was when he wept over his daughter.
The Australian public loved former PM Bob Hawke for his tears of love for his daughter who was at that time a drug addict...Sorry, David, we are not as stoic as the Brits :-)
Thanks you😇😂
🙌🏿
genius
29:20 Interesting that in 1944 In a letter to the US State Department The Red Cross, who were stationed in all the prisoner camps in Germany, stated : “We have not been able to discover any trace of installations for exterminating civilian prisoners.”
The Hallelujah chorus or the Hallel?
Wonderful teaching! (only correction... it's the 9th of Av)
35:10 The parallel between the jews of the OT and the Catholics after the ascension of Jesus is remarkable. Both have been punished for disobeying God. The sacraments, sacrifices and priests of both have been taken away. Just as the Philistines and Babylonians were sent to punish the jews so did God use the protest-ants to punish the Catholics (His Church). After Vatican 2 God's anger has boiled over.
1:30 Forgiveness is interesting. God will only forgive us if we ASK for forgiveness. Should we forgive someone who doesn't ask?
At one time women routinely ate the afterbirth , because it was full of nutrients and good for continueing to nourish the baby through the mothers milk. I dont know how many years ago. I'm sure animals do it if not overdomesticated. I dont remember ever clearing away the afterbirth when my dogs or cats , or rabbits gave birth. K
the world financial center would be Shanghai
That’s ridiculous forgiving someone who burns your family alive. Yes, Christ forgave you, but you didn’t burn another man’s family to ashes. Don’t forgive those who have no remorse for their actions.
28:30 Suprising the jews can't see how they are repeating the sins of their forefathers that keep them from realizing the fulfillment of prophecy in the form of Jesus.
This would be better if the personal stories would have been left out. In today’s times, we all need just the word of God, no additional information.
I dont agree . The personal stories help to anchor the teaching i find . K
They're called illustrations. Can you imagine learning mathematical principles only without working out some problems to see how those principles are applied. As an engineer, I'd say that would be pointless.
dont be fanatic
The library story was a great way to describe adam and eve to someone who didn't understand. Its stories like these that bring people in rather than leaving them clueless.
Dude seems like a wise man but this whole deal about music not serving God if people aren't prophetic is totally nonsense. That's just him interjecting his own opinion.
Zack Meuth says the young musician I guess
Hes just saying that overproffesionalism doesnt enhance praise. I agree though a semi trained musician i believe that God appreciates the passion and sincerity of heart and that is the most important. thing to Him. God sees and feels differently from us sometimes . K
That is the truth, Lucipher lead the heavens choir, and he hated worship leader instead of being worshipped.
Hillsong & Bethel music is an example
May God have mercy on you, you
Don't any kind words to Express
Your concerns. Are you a discipline of the devil?
Well regarding professionalism psalm 33:3 Sing to him a new song; play skillfully, and shout for joy.
The word "skillfully" is used here. I think there are different ways to worship and if you don't have the gift of singing or playing but you still want to try maybe at home I'm confident God loves that. When you play in a choir or in a band, certain skills are needed otherwise you won't be able to finish the song. I"m not sure if all the musicians have to be prophetic, for sure the worshipping leader has a bigger responsibility since songs have to be chosen based on the sermon or the way the Holy Spirit wants to lead. Just my humble opinion. Would be nice to have an open respectful discussion here :)
