Publisher Description
In the Jewish calendar, the Lament of Rachel (Jer 31:15) is read on Rosh Hashanah 2, the beginning of the year. For Christians it is at the end of the year at the commemoration of the Holy Innocents on December 28 that the same words, as quoted in Matthew's Gospel, speak a poignant message: Rachel's Lament speaks to people at those transition times of life such as the turn of the year or a change of location or moments of loss and confusion.
