Albert Barnes Commentary Lamentations 4:6

"For the iniquity of the daughter of my people is greater than the sin of Sodom, That was overthrown as in a moment, and no hands were laid upon her." — Lamentations 4:6 (ASV)

Rather, For the iniquity of the daughter of my people was greater than the sin of Sodom. The prophet deduces this conclusion from the greatness of Judah’s misery .

No hands stayed on her—Or, no hands were round about her. Sodom’s sufferings in dying were brief: there were no starving children, no mothers cooking their offspring for food.
