S.O.A.P Bar for Ultimate Cleansing- Century Old Family of
Natural Handcrafted Handmade Artisan Soap

Did you know that over 3,500 years ago, God instructed the children of Israel to wash their hands and provided a recipe for soap to be used after coming into contact with a dead body? This incredible foresight predates our modern understanding of germ theory by millennia. The seemingly peculiar combination of ashes, hyssop, cedar, and scarlet wool, along with running water, was actually an effective antibacterial method for washing hands. Today, we understand that these ingredients have powerful antibacterial properties and that using running water is far superior to stagnant water for handwashing. It’s fascinating to see how God’s command to wash hands with soap and water after contact with a dead body aligns with our modern understanding of disease prevention. This ancient practice would have undoubtedly helped prevent the spread of diseases among the Israelites.

The Bible mentions “soap” in Jeremiah 2:22 and Malachi 3:2, using it metaphorically to symbolize that outward cleansing efforts cannot hide one’s sin from God unless they are genuinely purified by Him. Essentially, human effort alone cannot fully remove sin. Key points about these verses: Meaning: In both verses, “soap” represents a cleansing agent, but the context emphasizes that even with a thorough cleansing, God can still see the stain of sin. Jeremiah 2:22: This verse states, “Though you wash with lye and use much soap, the stain of your guilt is still before me,” highlighting that outward actions cannot erase true guilt. Malachi 3:2: This verse compares God’s coming to a “refiner’s fire” and “fuller’s soap,” signifying a powerful cleansing process that will purify the righteous.
