MYRRH - M>@ - This substance is mentioned in kjv@Exodus:30:23) as one of the ingredients of the "oil of holy ointment:" in kjv@Esther:2:12) as one of the substances used in the purification of women; in kjv@Psalms:45:8; kjv@Proverbs:7:17) and in several passages in Canticles, as a perfume. The Greek occurs in kjv@Matthew:2:11) among the gifts brought by the wise men to the infant Jesus and in kjv@Mark:15:23) it is said that "wine mingled with myrrh" was offered to but refused by, our Lord on the cross. Myrrh was also used for embalming.
See John:19;39 and Herod. kjv@2:86. The Balsamodendron myrrha , which produces the myrrh of commerce, has a wood and bark which emit a strong odor; the gum which exudes from the bark is at first oily, but becomes hard by exposure to the air. (This myrrh is in small yellowish or white globules or tears. The tree is small, with a stunted trunk, covered with light-gray bark, It is found in Arabia Felix. The myrrh of kjv@Genesis:37:25) was probably ladalzum , a highly-fragrant resin and volatile oil used as a cosmetic, and stimulative as a medicine. It is yielded by the cistus , known in Europe as the rock rose, a shrub with rose-colored flowers, growing in Palestine and along the shores of the Mediterranean.
ED.) For wine mingled with myrrh see GALL.

Myrrh @ Heb. mor.

(1.) First mentioned as a principal ingredient in the holy anointing oil kjv@Exodus:30:23). It formed part of the gifts brought by the wise men from the east, who came to worship the infant Jesus kjv@Matthew:2:11). It was used in embalming kjv@John:19:39), also as a perfume kjv@Esther:2:12; kjv@Psalms:45:8; kjv@Proverbs:7:17). It was a custom of the Jews to give those who were condemned to death by crucifixion "wine mingled with myrrh" to produce insensibility. This drugged wine was probably partaken of by the two malefactors, but when the Roman soldiers pressed it upon Jesus "he received it not" kjv@Mark:15:23). (
See GALL.) This was the gum or viscid white liquid which flows from a tree resembling the acacia, found in Africa and Arabia, the Balsamodendron myrrha of botanists. The "bundle of myrrh" in Cant. 1:13 is rather a "bag" of myrrh or a scent-bag.

(2.) Another word lot is also translated "myrrh" kjv@Genesis:37:25 kjv@Genesis:43:11; R.V., marg., "or ladanum"). What was meant by this word is uncertain. It has been thought to be the chestnut, mastich, stacte, balsam, turpentine, pistachio nut, or the lotus. It is probably correctly rendered by the Latin word ladanum, the Arabic ladan, an aromatic juice of a shrub called the Cistus or rock rose, which has the same qualities, though in a slight degree, of opium, whence a decoction of opium is called laudanum. This plant was indigenous to Syria and Arabia.
