Before your shame was uncovered? Now you have become like her a word of shame to the daughters of Edom and all who are round about you, the daughters of the Philistines who put shame on you round about.
Ezekiel 16:57
Shrub, or plant
'A shrub' or 'plant,' as in Genesis 21:15, denotes perception, but so little that it is hardly anything, in same way as 'trees,' but to a lesser degree. So 'to be cast under one of the shrubs,' signifies being destroyed regarding truth and good, to the point of desperation.

He said to him, "Bring me a heifer three years old, a female goat three years old, a ram three years old, a turtledove, and a young pigeon."
