Chomat Anakh on Jeremiah 36:32:1
“And besides, many words like these were added to them. It is possible that ‘I
am the man’ was added in three alphabetic sections, to hint at what the king
did: he disparaged the word of the Lord and did not fear; and a second time he
tore it, and a third time he burned it. And the scroll was written in
alphabetic order because they had damaged the twenty-two letters of the Torah,
as Scripture says, ‘for they have forsaken My Torah.’ And three times
twenty-two equals, by gematria, Adonai including the total, because, as
it were, they damaged the Shekhinah, and she had to go into exile because of
them.”
Metzudat David on Jeremiah 36:32:1
“And besides, many words were added to them. From Jeremiah’s own mouth there
were also added to them, on his own initiative, many words to the same extent
as in the beginning, for at first he said three alphabetic stanzas: ‘How she
sits alone,’ ‘How the Lord has covered His anger,’ ‘How gold has dimmed,’ and
he added further, ‘I am the man who has seen affliction,’ which is in a
threefold arrangement.”
Radak on Jeremiah 36:32:1
“And besides, many words like these were added to them. In the words of our
Rabbis, Rabbi Ḥama b. Ḥanina and Rav said: one says that ‘and besides, many
words were added to them’ refers to ‘How the Lord has covered’—‘things’ refers
to ‘How gold has dimmed’; ‘many’ refers to ‘Remember, O Lord,’ like them; ‘like
these’ refers to ‘I am the man,’ which is arranged in threes. And one says that
‘and besides, many words were added to them’ refers to ‘I am the man,’ which is
arranged in threes. This teaches that on the first scroll there were written
‘How she sits,’ ‘How the Lord has covered,’ and ‘How gold has dimmed’; and that
is what is written: ‘and besides, many words like these were added to
them’—‘these’ refers to ‘I am the man,’ which is arranged in threes; ‘many’
refers to ‘Remember, O Lord.’”
