Israel, for the ark of God has been captured."
Gen 41:51-52 AMP

affliction.
Ps 84:6-7 AMP

herdsmen, saying, The water is ours. And he named the
well Esek [contention] because they quarreled with him.

quarreled over that also; so he named it Sitnah
[enmity]. 22 And he moved away from there and dug
another well, and for that one they did not quarrel. He

made room for us, and we shall be fruitful in the land.

afflicted me?
Gen 27:36 AMP

-
If a person in your dream is someone you know only
as a casual acquaintance and not someone that is
close to you, they are most likely planted in your
dream on purpose. The first key is to look up the
meaning of their name.
-
If that doesnt help you interpret your dream, then
next consider their behaviour. If you know them
only at a distance, there should be something about
that person that stands out to more than other
things. They may have had an experience that you
remember. Whatever you discover may be a parable
and represent something.
-
If the person is someone really close to you, their
name may mean something to the interpretation in a
personal way. But also consider what that person
adds to your personal life that is an important
asset.
-
The fact that the person is close to you is
important and probably adds a depth as to the
personal application to your dream. In other words,
it may be a corporate Word you received, but it also
has intimate meaning to you as well.
