The reason is, because this second child Loruhamah was to signify unto the people of Israel their carrying out of their own Country into captivity into Assyria: It was to signify to them that they should be weaned from the comforts and delights that there were in their own Country; they should be taken away from their milk and honey that they had there; and be carried into Assyria, and be there fed with hard meat, even with the water of affliction and the bread of affliction. The first child did but signify their scattering, especially in regard of their seditions amongst themselves. But the second child signified the carrying away all of them wholly into captivity from their own Land,1 Therefore the second child is weaned, Cibis sustent abitur immundis, So. Jerome hath it, They should be carried amongst the Gentiles, and be fed with unclean meat, they should be deprived of prophecy, and of the milk of the word, and of the ordinances that they enjoyed, So Vatablus.
