This detention shows the growing hostility towards him and the attempt to silence him. [...]

[...] Just like Jeremiah, we can be tempted to sink into despair. His poignant words am the man who has seen affliction' - Lamentations show that resilience passes through the acceptance of one's own limits while keeping a persistent hope.
