wept aloud

"Heb. gave forth his voice in weeping. ""This,"" says Sir J. Chardin, ""is exactly the genius of the people of Asia; their sentiments of joy or grief are properly transports, and their transports are ungoverned, excessive, and truly outrageous. When anyone returns from a long journey or dies, his family burst into cries that may be heard twenty doors off; and this is renewed at different times, and continues many days, according to the vigour of the passion. Sometimes they cease all at once, and then begin as suddenly, with a greater shrillness and loudness than one could easily imagine."" Num 14:1; Rth 1:9; 2Ki 20:3; Act 20:37" |
