This source, as described by the Chronicler, should not be confused with the canonical Book of Lamentations.
The same event is retold in 1 Esdras 1:32, although it lacks any reference to writing, or the recording of the lamentation.
Nevertheless, the dirges referred to in 2 Chronicles and 1 Esdras, as well as Lamentations may refer to a larger corpus of laments that once existed in the temple or palace archives of ancient Jerusalem.
