Lamentations 3:39 Commentary


Lamentations 3:39: And What It Means to All People!!

By: Anthony Joseph Hopkins August 18, 2020

 

        39. Why Should a living man complain, a man for the punishment of his sins?  Allow me to expand on this Bible verse.  Lamentations 3:39 has a whole lot to do with the sins that we commit against God.  When it comes to a man, woman, and child that sins, why shall we complain when we sin against God?

 Why should a living man complain about the punishment of his sins.  Frankly, a man should repent of his sins rather than complain about it.  I mean his sins.

        Micah 7:9 says I will bear the indignation of the Lord, because I have sinned against Him, until He pleads my case and executes justice for me.  He will bring me forth to the light; I will see His righteousness.  The reason why I wrote this Bible verse is simply because it coincides with Lamentations 3:39. These two Bible verses are alike when it comes to man’s sins.  The Bible verse Micah 7:9 talks about God’s wrath against mankind.  God will execute justice for all of us.  In the previous Bible verse, man complains about his sins.

 

 

 

        I guess whenever man complains to God about his sins, man is trying to question God’s wrath against him.  Man is also questioning his punishment from God to begin with.  Why should a living man complain? 

 Man is expressing his dissatisfaction about his sins to God.  I understand why Jeremiah wrote it!!  Jeremiah wrote it as a complaint against God.  When it comes to our sins, we do not have any business complaining to God or anyone else!!  I understand what a lament means.  The word lament means to complain or express sorrow.

        I sincerely understand that God is giving all of us a second chance at life.  I know that man is not supposed to quarrel or argue with God in the first place.  Man is very sinful.  Man, questions everything that he does wrong because he is afraid and terrified of God’s wrath.  When it comes to Micah 7:9, it specifically talks about God’s wrath on the wicked.

 In my case, I know that I am a sinful man, who needs God’s grace and mercy upon me.  When it comes to my sins, and iniquities, I have to be transparent and accountable for all of my sins.

        Finally, I have realized that I cannot fight God either way.  I know that God created me for a reason.  I might not know my reason for existing to all of my questions.

 I know that if I see God for myself, I might have to pay the price!! This means that I might perish in the process.  When it comes to my sins, God has the right to judge me according to all of my sins.  Man can only make an opinion about me.  Even though, I have to adhere to Man’s laws and God’s Laws as well.

Job 15:12 says: Why does your heart carry you away?  What do your eyes wink at,  This means that your stress is getting the best of you.  The reason why stress is getting the best of me is because I have allowed it to happen to me.  I know that I am only a human being.  I am a Work in Progress!  What do my eyes wink at?  I really do not know that I was winking at anyone.  Remember that only a deceptive person tend to wink a lot.  I will admit that I have allowed stress to get the best of me.  I have been under pressure as of late.  I have been dealing with Organized Criminals Worldwide during the past 14 years now.  These people are responsible for messing up my Cellphones and all of my personal email accounts.
