Commentary on 2 Samuel 1:25
Theological / DevotionalHow are the mighty fallen. The poet thrice repeats this refrain (see vs. 19, 27). The recurrence of the same idea is appropriate to the spirit of the elegy, since grief is fond of dwelling on the central theme of its passion, expressing itself again and again in the same bitter strains.
