Commentary for Lamentations 2:7
זָנַ֨ח אֲדֹנָ֤י ׀ מִזְבְּחוֹ֙ נִאֵ֣ר מִקְדָּשׁ֔וֹ הִסְגִּיר֙ בְּיַד־אוֹיֵ֔ב חוֹמֹ֖ת אַרְמְנוֹתֶ֑יהָ ק֛וֹל נָתְנ֥וּ בְּבֵית־יְהוָ֖ה כְּי֥וֹם מוֹעֵֽד׃ (ס)
The Lord hath cast off His altar, He hath abhorred His sanctuary, He hath given up into the hand of the enemy The walls of her palaces; They have made a noise in the house of the LORD, As in the day of a solemn assembly.
Rashi on Lamentations
[He] nullified. He rejected,26Alternatively, ‘he burnt.’ and similarly, “You rejected נֵאַרְתָּה the covenant of Your servant.”27Tehilim 89:40.

Rashi on Lamentations
Like that of a festival day. For they were making merry and singing with a loud voice in its midst. So did the enemies let out a cry of joy when it was destroyed.
