  2. Explication du texte

Was there any possibility of escaping from her enemies?

Lamentations 1:3 (NEG79)

3 Juda est en exil, victime de l'oppression et d'une grande servitude; Il habite au milieu des nations, Et il n'y trouve point de repos; Tous ses persécuteurs l'ont surpris dans l'angoisse.

No, the statement following confirms it: Her pursuers have all overtaken her in the midst of her distress(Lamentations 1:3). This particular description of the event appears throughout (Lamentations 1:6, Lamentations 3:43, Lamentations 3:66, Lamentations 5:5). So although there were attempts at escape, they were unsuccessful. An example is provided in King Zedekiah’s failed attempt (see 2 Kings 25:1–7).
