词汇	jeremiad
词源	jeremiad. A lengthy tale of woe or complaint that takes its name from Jeremiah, the major Hebrew prophet of the Old Testament—Lamentations and Jeremiah. Jeremiah’s long and sorrowful complaints were a protest against the sins of his countrymen and their captivity, his tirades and dire prophecies rarely equaled in history. Strangely enough, Jeremiah, who lived in the sixth century b.c., is also thought to be the author of several of the Psalms. See also no balm in gilead.
