Hyssopus è il nome usato da Ippocrate derivato dall'ebraico ezob = “erba sacra”. È un termine molto antico frequentemente nominato nel Vecchio Testamento (Esodo 12,22), che narra come fu usata come pennello per segnare col sangue d'agnello le porte delle famiglie israelitiche che l'angelo distruttore doveva risparmiare in occasione dell'esodo dall'Egitto (la 1° Pasqua). In Levitico 14 si parla quattro volte del'issopo per l'aspersione del sangue da parte del sommo sacerdote sull'altare. Tradizionalmente la pianta d'issopo era usata in rametti riuniti come aspersorio e utilizzata nelle purificazioni. (Nel Salmo 51, conosciuto come Miserere, al verso 9 si dice: “Aspergimi con rami d'issopo e sarò puro”). Questa pianta è stata citata in testi del VII secolo, e fu ampiamente usata in cosmetica. Non si ha la certezza che la specie conosciuta e apprezzata da Re Salomone sia proprio l'Hyssopus officinalis. Già nel XVIII secolo se ne conoscevano varietà diverse per il colore dei fiori e la forma delle foglie. In altri tempi, si usava per curare l'asma, le affezioni bronchiali e polmonari croniche. In Persia l'acqua distillata ottenuta dalla pianta viene usata come cosmetico, in quanto ha la fama di rendere lucente l'incarnato. Il miele di issopo è apprezzato per il gusto delicato anche se intensamente profumato. Oggigiorno, dalle foglie, viene estratto un olio, usato in profumeria e distilleria. Scatto effettuato in Val di Fassa nel Luglio 2016.

Many thanks for the welcome appreciation of the shot, I'm really satisfied!
The photo was taken in Pera, a short distance from the shore of the river (which I do not know the name) that comes down from Gardeccia, a few meters before his nell'Avisio entry.
Best wishes and a good evening!

Dear Franco, you must know that I give a hand to the friars, to support their convent, they sell the honey they produce with their hives, but I had never heard of honey hyssop, and I never even tasted .
Plus I'll tell you that I did this shot fascinated by the colors and the beauty of the flower and, only later, I discovered that it was the flower of hyssop, often quoted in the Old Testament.
A big thank you for your comment that made me a great pleasure!
