gall for my meat   "Bochart, from a comparison of this passage with Jhn 19:29, thinks that rosh is the same herb as the evangelist calls [ ] hyssop; a species of which, growing in Judea, he proves from Isaac ben Orman, an Arabian writer, to be so bitter as not to be eatable. Theophylact expressly tells us, that the hyssop was added [ ] as being deleterious, or poisonous: and Nonnus, in his paraphrase, says, [ ] ""One gave the deadly acid mixed with hyssop."" Jer 8:14; Jer 9:15; Jer 23:15; Mat 27:34,48"
