Exodus 12:21-23 Hyssop!

21Then Moses summoned all the elders of Israel and told them, “Go at once and select for yourselves a lamb for each family, and slaughter the Passover lamb. 22Take a cluster of hyssop, dip it into the blood in the basin, and brush the top and the two side posts of the doorframe with some of the blood. None of you shall go out the door of his house until morning.
23When the LORD passes through to strike down the Egyptians, He will see the blood on the top and the two side posts and pass over the door; so He will not allow the destroyer to enter your houses and strike you down.

“Through the Scriptures, hyssop was often used to apply blood for the cleansing of sin.” Guzik 

Hyssop was also used during the crucification of Christ. 
“It is possible that God meant this as a picture of purification, as Jesus bought our forgiveness with His sacrifice. Just as in the Old Testament blood and hyssop purified a defiled person, so Jesus’ shed blood purifies us from the defilement of our sin.” https://www.gotquestions.org/hyssop-Bible.html

Has Jesus’ blood purified you?

Blessings, David
