“Grass” From Boyd’s Bible Dictionary:
(for gnawing). Large figurative use (Psa. 90:5-6; Isa. 40:6,8; James 1:10-11; 1 Peter 1:24); sometimes herbage in general (Isa. 15:6); a fuel (Matt. 6:30; Luke 12:28).

“Grass” From Concise Bible Dictionary:
A field in Israel (with anemone coronaria).
This word is often used in scripture for any kind of small herb or fodder. It is frequently referred to metaphorically to represent human frailty. “Surely the people is grass: the grass withereth, the flower fadeth” (Isa. 40:7-8). It is growing one day, and the next it is cast into the oven as fuel (Matt. 6:30).
“Leeks (Chatsir)” From Concise Bible Dictionary:
Leek Field
The Hebrew word seems to refer to what is “green,” and is often translated “grass”; twice it is rendered “hay” and once “herb,” but the leek is very likely referred to in Numbers 11:5. The Israelites, longed for such as they had eaten in Egypt. The Allium porrum has long been a favorite in the East. Dr. Kitto preferred the Trigonella foerum graecum, a grass similar to clover.
