Hyssop Essential Oil

Description

Hyssop essential oil (Hyssopus officinalis), symbol of purity and humility, is remembered in Psalm 51: purify me with hyssop and I will be clean, wash me and I will be whiter than snow… During the plagues of Egypt, the exterminating angel ignored the houses whose doorposts had been marked with hyssop sprigs, dipped in the blood of a lamb.
