Clarke's Commentary on the BibleA voice was heard in Ramah - The Ramah mentioned here, (for there were several towns of this name), was situated in the tribe of Benjamin, about six or seven miles from Jerusalem. Near this place Rachel was buried; who is here, in a beautiful figure of poetry, represented as coming out of her grave, and lamenting bitterly for the loss of her children, none of whom presented themselves to her view, all being slain or gone into exile. St. Matthew, who is ever fond of accommodation, applies these words, Matthew 2:17, Matthew 2:18, to the massacre of the children at Bethlehem. That is, they were suitable to that occasion, and therefore he so applied them; but they are not a prediction of that event. Treasury of Scripture Knowledge A.

Genesis 37:35 And all his sons and all his daughters rose up to comfort him; but he refused to be comforted; and he said... Psalm 77:2 In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord: my sore ran in the night, and ceased not: my soul refused to be comforted. Isaiah 22:4 Therefore said I, Look away from me; I will weep bitterly, labor not to comfort me... because. Genesis 42:13,36 And they said, Your servants are twelve brothers, the sons of one man in the land of Canaan; and, behold... Job 7:21 And why do you not pardon my transgression, and take away my iniquity? for now shall I sleep in the dust... Psalm 37:36 Yet he passed away, and, see, he was not: yes, I sought him, but he could not be found. Lamentations 5:7 Our fathers have sinned, and are not; and we have borne their iniquities.
