예레미야애가 5:17 해설: Tze'enah Ure'enah & Rashi

“Because” [5:17]. Our hearts are sick; our eyes have become darkened, because of this.

For this our hearts ached, etc. Because of that which is delineated in the verse following, “Over Mount Tzion, which was devastated [and] foxes meandered over it.”¹³Below, verse 18. Our hearts ache only for the destruction of Mount Tzion, and nothing else. (Palgei Mayim)
