The book of Lamentations has some pretty harrowing imagery, especially as it relates to children, so parental discretion is advised . We have concluded the book Jeremiah but we have not yet exhausted his writings; church history carries tradition that it is Jeremiah who wrote the book of Lamentations after the desolation of Judah had come to pass. Remember that Chaldeans laid siege to Jerusalem, basically surrounding them and starving them out until there was no more bread. A combination of evil and desperation led women of the city to eat their own children, as was predicted by the curses of abandoning the law recorded in Deuteronomy 28:53.
