'Herb' in the Bible
“Let my teaching drop as the rain,My speech distill as the dew,As the droplets on the fresh grassAnd as the showers on the herb.
‘Therefore their inhabitants were short of strength,They were dismayed and put to shame;They were as the vegetation of the field and as the green herb,As grass on the housetops is scorched before it is grown up.
For they will wither quickly like the grassAnd fade like the green herb.
“Therefore their inhabitants were short of strength,They were dismayed and put to shame;They were as the vegetation of the field and as the green herb,As grass on the housetops is scorched before it is grown up.
“But woe to you Pharisees! For you pay tithe of mint and rue and every kind of garden herb, and yet disregard justice and the love of God; but these are the things you should have done without neglecting the others.
