Lamentations
The poem describes a collapse of leadership and guidance: “The law is no more,” and prophets find no vision from the LORD. It places this alongside the exile of king and princes among the nations (Lamentations 2:9).
9Her gates are sunk into the ground; he has destroyed and broken her bars: Her king and her princes are among the nations where the law is not; Yes, her prophets find no vision from Yahweh.
