בִּלָּ֤ה בְשָׂרִי֙ וְעוֹרִ֔י שִׁבַּ֖ר עַצְמוֹתָֽי׃
Fez envelhecer a minha carne e a minha pele; quebrou-me os ossos.
Ibn Ezra
The Hebrew word unlace also implies “pull off”, as in “pull out the breast” [Lamentations 4: 3].
From David to Destruction
In Megillat Eichah, we express anger at Hashem in Pesukim such as “He drew His arrow like an enemy” (Eichah 2:4) and “He ambushes me like a bear, like a lion in waiting” (Eichah 3:4). We clarify in the Haftarah of Shabbat Chazon, however, that upon sober reflection, we realize that “Hashem is righteous in all His ways” (Tehillim 145:17).
