Anise Dill (ISBE)

DIC dictionary-entry · status:draft · license:PD

an´is , or dil; (RVm, ἄνηθον , ánēthon ): Not the true anise, Pimpinella anisum , as was supposed by the King James Version translators, but Dill, Anethum graveolens . This is an annual or biennial herb of NO U mbelliferae, growing from one to three feet high, with small yellow flowers and brownish, flattened, oval fruits 1/5 inch long. It grows wild in lands bordering on the Mediterranean. The seeds have an aromatic flavor and are used as condiment in cooking, as carminative in medicine. "Dill water" is a favorite domestic remedy. Jesus said (Matthew 23:23 ): "Woe unto you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye tithe mint and anise and cummin, and have left undone the weightier matters of the law," etc. In the tract, Ma‛asērōth (4 5) it is mentioned that this plant (Hebrew shābhath ), its stem, leaves and seed, was subject to tithe.
