Holy Scripture
Lamentations 3:2
A church father on this verse
“Second, a subtraction of consolation is viewed. "He has driven and brought me into darkness without any light." Since, after blows, no consolation is offered in the accustomed manner. Thus, Job 3:23 asks: "Why is light given to a man whose way is hid, whom God has hedged in?"”
