Adversity

Wilson's Dictionary of Bible Types

Isaiah 30:20 (b) This expression represents the sorrows on which GOD's people will feed when they turn their backs on their Lord and become disobedient. They will feed on their difficulties and pains. They will meditate on them, talk about them, and grieve over them as though they were something to be treasured and sought after. This thought will be further developed under the word "ASHES."
