Aaron's Rod

in #flowers6 years ago

Aaron's Rod is an annual plant with deep blue stalkless flowers attached to a long, narrow spikes. What seems like a useless weed is an eccentric herb. I haven't heard of this plant used as herbal remedy. I can't say that I was that surprised, but it was more than what I'd thought of those cute little flowers. If it were not for the fact that it is in the book of Amazing Healing Plants by JC Kurian, Ph.D. in Medical Anthropology from Thailand.

The extracted juice from the crushed leaves for instance can be applied externally to cure ulcers and used over the eyes for general opthalmic problems.

Among the many relics of the Aaronic priesthood is the rod of Aaron . It was used in the Old Testament by Moses' brother Aaron, as well as by other leaders and tribes of Israel. The rod was also used as a weapon and shepherd's staff.

The rod of Aaron was a symbol of the priestly authority of God. God chose Aaron to be his priest. He was the leader of the people of Israel. He was also the representative of the Levites tribe. During the days of Moses, the Levites were given to the house of Aaron to serve in the Tabernacle.

The rod of Aaron was a wooden stick. It was crafted with the intent of bearing fruit. It was to remind the children of Israel of the power of God's priesthood. It was also to be preserved as a museum piece.

Among the many miracles performed by Aaron was the miracle of the rod. It was created by the reading of the Ineffable Name of God.

The rod of Aaron was one of the twelve rods given to Moses. Each tribe of Israel was commanded to bring its rod into the sanctuary of the Lord. The rods were to be carved with the name of the tribe. Each rod was to be laid in the presence of the Lord before the testimony.

The rod of Aaron was also a symbol of the Son of God. It was the part of a living tree, and it bore fruit. When it was in the presence of the Lord, it blossomed, producing branches, buds, and almonds.
