Origin

Sweet Marjoram is native to the Middle East and often called Syrian Oregano, as its Latin name indicates. Also known as zaatar, it is not to be confused with Za’atar, which is instead an herbal blend. Some believe Sweet Marjoram is the hyssop referred to in the Old Testament of the Bible, and thus is also often referred to as Bible hyssop.
