本書的結構是一組離合詩（acrostics體）
The entire book of Lamentations is written in carefully constructed poetry. The first four chapters form acrostics. An acrostic is a poetic form in which the first letters of each line or verse form a meaningful sequence.
The book of Lamentations contains acrostic compositions that are based on the 22 letters of the Hebrew alphabet. Lamentations 1, 2, and 4 each contain 22 verses, each of which begins with a different letter of the Hebrew alphabet, in alphabetical order.
Lamentations 3 contains 66 verses. In this chapter the first three verses each begin with the first letter of the Hebrew alphabet, the next three verses each begin with the second letter, and so on. Lamentations 5 contains 22 verses but is not acrostic. (See Bible Dictionary, “Lamentations, book of.”)
Poetically, the use of acrostics gives structure and sequence to the expression of Judah’s overwhelming grief in circumstances that must have seemed chaotic, senseless, and devoid of any order. The use of this literary device also reflects the thoughtful use of language in crying out to God.
