**The Judaica Press complete Tanach with Rashi, translated by A. J. Rosenberg:**

**וְאֶת הָאָח.** פֵּרְשׁוּ רַבּוֹתֵינוּ (שבת כ.): עֵצִים; עַל שֵׁם שֶׁנִּדְלָקִים בְּאַחְוָה (כְּלוֹמַר שֶׁנִּדְלָקִים זֶה מִזֶּה כְּאַחִים שֶׁמְּהַנִּים זֶה לָזֶה סא״א). וּלְפִי פְשׁוּטוֹ מַשְׁמַע שֶׁהוּא כְּלִי שֶׁמְּבַעֲרִין עָלָיו אוּר לִפְנֵי הַשָּׂרִים:

**The Judaica Press complete Tanach with Rashi, translated by A. J. Rosenberg:**
**and the brazier** Heb. האח. Our Rabbis (Shabbath 21a) defined it as wood, called so because they burn with brotherhood. (That is to say that they are ignited one from the other, like brothers, who benefit each other. Omitted in other editions.) And according to its simple meaning, it appears that it is a vessel upon which they kindle fire before the princes.

**שָׁלֹשׁ דְּלָתוֹת.** רַבּוֹתֵינוּ אָמְרוּ (מועד קטן כו.): מְגִלַּת קִינוֹת הָיְתָה, קָרְאוּ לְפָנָיו ״אֵיכָה״, ״בָּכֹה תִבְכֶּה״, ״גָּלְתָה יְהוּדָה״, ״דַּרְכֵי צִיּוֹן אֲבֵלוֹת״ (איכה א:א-ד) – בְּכָל זֶה לֹא חָשׁ, אָמַר: אֲנִי מֶלֶךְ עַל הַנּוֹתָרִים; כֵּיוָן שֶׁקָּרָא ״הָיוּ צָרֶיהָ לְרֹאשׁ״ (איכה א:ה), אָמַר: מֵעַכְשָׁיו אֵינִי מֶלֶךְ; מִיָּד וַ**יִּקְרָעֶהָ בְּתַעַר הַסֹּפֵר**:

**The Judaica Press complete Tanach with Rashi, translated by A. J. Rosenberg:**
**three...verses** Our Rabbis (Moed Katan 26a) stated. This was the Scroll of Lamentations. They read before him, (1:1) “How...(:2) She weeps...(ibid. 3) Judah has been exiled...(ibid. 4) The roads of Zion are mournful.” Despite all this, he was not troubled. He said, “I am the king over the survivors.” As soon as he read (ibid. 5), Her adversaries have become the head,” he said, “From now on, I am [no longer] the king.” Immediately, he rent it with a scribe’s razor.

**דְּבָרִים רַבִּים כָּהֵמָּה.** מִתְּחִלָּה הָיוּ שָׁלֹשׁ אַלְפָא בֵּיתִין: ״אֵיכָה יָשְׁבָה״ (איכה א:א), ״אֵיכָה יָעִיב״ (איכה ב:א), ״אֵיכָה יוּעַם״ (איכה ד:א), וְהוֹסִיף עָלֶיהָ ״אֲנִי הַגֶּבֶר״ (איכה ג:א), שֶׁכָּל אוֹת מְשֻׁלֶּשֶׁת בָּהּ (איכה רבה ג:א):

**The Judaica Press complete Tanach with Rashi, translated by A. J. Rosenberg:**
**many words like those** At first, there were three alphabetical acrostics: (Lam. ch. 1) “O how... remained,” (2) “How...brought darkness,” (4) “How dim...has become.” And he added to it, (3) “I am the man,” in which every letter is tripled.
