Commentaire sur Les Lamentations 2:8: Rachi, Rambam, Ibn Ezra et plus

חָשַׁ֨ב יְהוָ֤ה ׀ לְהַשְׁחִית֙ חוֹמַ֣ת בַּת־צִיּ֔וֹן נָ֣טָה קָ֔ו לֹא־הֵשִׁ֥יב יָד֖וֹ מִבַּלֵּ֑עַ וַיַּֽאֲבֶל־חֵ֥ל וְחוֹמָ֖ה יַחְדָּ֥ו אֻמְלָֽלוּ׃ (ס)

L’Éternel avait résolu de détruire le mur de la fille de Sion: il a tendu le cordeau et n’a pas détourné sa main de l’œuvre de ruine; il a mis en deuil murs et remparts: ensemble ils sont dans la désolation.

Rashi on Lamentations

Adonoy determined to destroy. It had been many days since this entered His mind, as it is stated, “For it has aroused My anger and My fury— this city—[from the day that they built it until this day], to remove it from My Presence.”28Yirmiyahu 32:31.

Rashi on Lamentations

He set the course. Of judgement, to be punished for our sins.

Rashi on Lamentations

From destroying. From destroying.
