The third stanza of the carol "Joy to the World" speaks of "sorrow, thorns and curse." What incident in the Bible is that song referencing?
Answer God's curse of Adam and Eve for sinning
When God cursed the earth for Adam and Eve's sin, it brought sorrow to the pregnant mothers and thorns to the work load of humanity. Life would not be easy. However, the earth knows joy because one day the king will return and right all the wrongs.
