Exo_12:22 And ye shall take a bunch of hyssop, and dip [it] in the blood that [is] in the bason, and strike the lintel and the two side posts with the blood that [is] in the bason; and none of you shall go out at the door of his house until the morning.
Ver. 22. A bunch of hyssop.] A herb of a purging property. See 1Co_6:11.
The blood that is in the bason.] The remembrance of Christ’s bloody passion must be kept fresh in our hearts. {a}
Strike the lintel.] Profess Christ crucified; honour him by a holy conversation; mind trim in your outgoings and incomings.

{a} Tam recens mihi nunc Christus, ac si hac hora fudisset sanguinem. - Luth.
