Olive Leaf:The olive tree is known as the "TREE OF LIFE" in the herbal world. And, the tree is prevalent in scripture. (It's interesting to note that a dove returned to Noah in the ark with an olive leaf in it's beak to show signs of new life.) Based upon history, modern science, and practical application, this tree has healing affects for the human body.
Research is showing an amazing attribute of the olive leaf. This leaf has enormous antiviral, antifungal, antibacterial, antiparasitic, and heart health benefits. There are studies in Israel that found the leaf effective against Streptococcus by damaging the cell membrane of the bacteria, and thus allowing intercellular substances like potassium, phosphorus, and glutamate to leak out, disabling the bacteria. Otherwise it kicks a hole in the bacteria cell wall so that healing nutrients can kill the handicapped bacteria.

Some holistic health care practitioners have reported that olive leaf has been effective for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS), poor immunity, fibromyalgia, sinusitis, chronic coughs, parasites, rheumatism, psoriasis, prostate complaints and some tumors. They credit these benefits to its ability to fight infection and its apparent detoxifying actions. These reports are not from controlled clinical or laboratory trials as yet, but are interesting anecdotes from private practice.

BREAD RECIPE IN EZEKIEL:Did you know there is a bread recipe in Ezekiel 4:9? There is a food/bread company named "FOOD FOR LIFE" that uses this recipe from the bible. If you have never eaten this bread, it's very good. Many health food stores carry it. |
HYSSOP:Hyssop was used in purification rites within scripture. Some examples are: Number 19:18, Exodus 12:22, and Leviticus 14:4-7. The Britannica Encyclopedia (1960) reads: The hyssop of scripture, a wall growing plant adapted for sprinkling purposes, is not to be identified with the Hyssopus officinalis (a garden herb), which is not a native of Palestine. The most probable opinion would seem to be that it was a species of caper (Capparis spinosa), but it may have been Satureia thymus, a plant of very frequent occurrence in Syria and Palestine, with which Thymus serpyllum, or wild thyme, and Satureia thymbra are closely allied. |
