THE EXILE IS A WOUND

Lamentations 2:13 What thing shall I take to witness for thee? what thing shall I liken to thee, O daughter of Jerusalem? what shall I equal to thee that I may comfort thee, O virgin daughter of Zion? for your breach is great like the sea: who can heal you?

Jeremiah 30:12 For thus says the LORD, Your bruise is incurable and your wound is grievous.

Jeremiah 30:13 There is none to plead your cause that you may be bound up: you have no healing medicines.

Hosea 5:13 When Ephraim saw his sickness and Judah saw his wound then went Ephraim to the Assyrian, and sent to king Jareb: yet could he not heal you nor cure you of your wound.
