Midrash sobre Lamentaciones 3:55

“I called Your name, Lord, from the depths of the pit” (Lamentations 3:55).
“I called Your name, Lord, from the depths of the pit” – this is Joseph, this is Jeremiah, this is Daniel.
“You heard my voice; let Your ear not disregard my cry for my comfort. You approached on the day that I called You; You said: Do not fear” (Lamentations 3:56–57).
“You heard my voice.… You approached on the day that I called You.”⁷⁸No commentary is offered on this verse. Possibly, the midrash is applying this verse to Joseph, Jeremiah and Daniel, stating that God heeded their prayers and, as the next passage states, fought their battles. Perhaps the verse is cited here as an implied prayer: Just as God heeded their prayers, so may He heed ours (Etz Yosef).
