GRASS
Sometimes means any green herbage, Isaiah 15:6, and sometimes the usual food of cattle, Psalms 104:14. The quick growth of grass, its tenderness, and its rapid combustion when dry, have furnished the sacred writers with some of their most appropriate illustrations, Psalms 90:5, Psalms 1:90; Psalms 1:92; Psalms 1:103, Psalms 1:103; Isaiah 1:40-8; Isaiah 1:51 James 1:10 1 Peter 1:24. All sorts of grass and small shrubs are still used in Syria for fuel, on account of the scarcity of wood, Matthew 1:6-30. Travelers in that country often See Ps 129:6, Psalms 1:129 Isaiah 37:27.
