Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 9. - She remembereth not, etc.; rather, she thought not upon, etc. An allusion to Isaiah 47:7. O Lord, behold, etc. This is the language in which the "sigh" (ver. 8) finds expression.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(9) Her filthiness.--The picture of pollution is pushed to its most loathsome extreme. The very skirts of the garment are defiled.She remembereth not . . .--Better, she remembered not. It was her recklessness as to the future (comp. Deuteronomy 32:29, for the phrase) which brought her down to this "wonderful" and extreme prostration.O Lord, behold my affliction.--The words are not those of the prophet, but of Zion, anticipating the dramatic personation which begins systematically at Lamentations 1:12.
