Bitter
Bitterness is symbolical of affliction, misery, and servitude (Ex. 1:14; Ruth 1:20; Jer. 9:15). The Chaldeans are called the “bitter and hasty nation” (Hab. 1:6). The “gall of bitterness” expresses a state of great wickedness (Acts 8:23). A “root of bitterness” is a wicked person or a dangerous sin (Heb. 12:15).
The Passover was to be eaten with “bitter herbs” (Ex. 12:8; Num. 9:11). The kind of herbs so designated is not known. Probably they were any bitter herbs obtainable at the place and time when the Passover was celebrated. They represented the severity of the servitude under which the people groaned; and have been regarded also as typical of the sufferings of Christ.

BITTER
Bitterness, in Exo 1:14, Rth 1:20, Jer 9:15, is the symbol of affliction, misery, and servitude; and therefore the servitude of the Israelites in Egypt was typically represented, in the celebration of the Passover, by bitter herbs.
The imbittering of the belly, signifies all the train of afflictions which may come upon a man; as in Jer 4:19, Jer 9:15; and the same is fully evident from the bitter waters of jealousy, Num 5:27.

Bitter
Jam 3:11 (a) No one’s lips should both bless and curse. If the heart is right with GOD, then all that comes out of it will be blessed and good. If bitterness comes out, it is because the heart is contaminated.
