Chag Sameach! May the God of Israel bless you!
Exodus 12:21-23 The Message (MSG)
Moses assembled all the elders of Israel. He said, “Select a lamb for your families and slaughter the Passover lamb. Take a bunch of hyssop and dip it in the bowl of blood and smear it on the lintel and on the two doorposts. No one is to leave the house until morning. God will pass through to strike Egypt down. When he sees the blood on the lintel and the two doorposts, God will pass over the doorway; he won’t let the destroyer enter your house to strike you down with ruin.”
Reading what you posted from Exodus 12 with the mention of “hyssop” reminds me of Psalm 51:7 which also mentioned hyssop in connection to forgiveness of sins: “Purify me with hyssop, and I shall be clean; Wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.” Which the next time we see hyssop: “A jar full of sour wine was standing there; so they put a sponge full of the sour wine upon a branch of hyssop and brought it up to His mouth.”
