Contextual Overview

¹ Call to remembraunce (O Lorde) what we haue suffred, consider and see our confusion. ² Our inheritaunce is turned to the straungers, and our houses to the aliaunts. ³ We are become carefull and fatherlesse, and our mothers are as the wydowes. ⁴ We are fayne to drinke our owne water for money, and our owne wood must we buy for money. ⁵ Our neckes are vnder persecution, we are weery and haue no rest. ⁶ [Aforetime] we yeelded our selues to the Egyptians, [and nowe] to the Assyrians, onlye that we might haue bread inough. ⁷ Our fathers (which nowe are gone) haue sinned, and we must beare their wickednesse. ⁸ Seruauntes haue the rule of vs, and no man deliuereth vs out of their handes. ⁹ We must get our liuing with the perill of our liues, because of the drouth of the wildernesse. ¹⁰ Our skinne is as it had ben made blacke in an ouen, for very sore hunger.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

The elders have ceased from the gate,.... Of the sanhedrim, or court of judicature, as the Targum; from the gate of the city, where they used to sit and try causes; but now there was nothing of this kind done:

the young men from their music; vocal and instrumental; the latter is more particularly specified, though both may be intended; neither were any more heard; their harps were hung upon the willows on the banks of Euphrates, which ran through the city of Babylon, Psalms 137:1.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The gate - The gate was the place for public gatherings, for conversation, and the music of stringed instruments.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 14. The elders have ceased from the gate — There is now no more justice administered to the people; they are under military law, or disposed of in every sense according to the caprice of their masters.
