Jeremiah 8:14 (b) A word which is used as a type of the bitterness in life's experiences. In this case it was bitterness because of the oppression and the destruction from invading armies.

So they are said to "drink gall."
Lamentations 3:19 (c) This may be taken as a prophetic utterance concerning the bitter experiences of the Saviour on Calvary.
