In the language of Scripture, ashes are sometimes spoken of to denote great humility and contrition of heart. Thus Abraham calls himself "dust and ashes." (Genesis 18:27) Job saith, that he "abhorred himself, and repented in dust and ashes." (Job 42:6 See Daniel 9:3; Psalms 102:9; Lamentations 3:16)
