“The full soul loatheth an honeycomb; but to the hungry soul every bitter thing is sweet.”
One who is full loathes honey from the comb, but to the hungry even what is bitter tastes sweet—a statement about how need transforms perception, establishing that appetite determines appreciation. The theological significance involves the principle of gratitude flowing from real need.
