Psalms 51:7 meaning and explanation
Purify me with hyssop, and I will be clean; wash me, and I will be whiter than snow.
Psalms 51:7, Berean Standard Bible

David asks God to purify him with hyssop, the small plant the law used for sprinkling cleansing water on those made unclean, and to wash him until he is whiter than snow. The superscription places the psalm after Nathan confronted David about Bathsheba, so the plea comes from a king who knows his guilt and has no ritual of his own to remove it.
