In The Beginning Myrrh

                             MYRRH

Let us take a look at our second Ancient Oil of the Bible which will be " Myrrh". This oil has many wonderful qualities that we will list later in this post. Myrrh was also one of the gifts that was brought to Jesus at His birth.

Myrrh is obtained through a steam distillation process of the gum/resin. The origin country of Myrrh is Somalia and Myrrh is mentioned in some of the oldest medical records dating back to the 16th century (BC)in an ancient Egyptian list of 877 prescriptions and recipes. Arabian people used Myrrh for many things such as chapped or cracked skin and wrinkles. It was also listed in Hildegard's Medicine, a compilation of highly regarded medicines by Hildegard of Bingen ( 1098-1179).

Medical properties of Myrrh have been said to be :
Powerful Antioxidant
Antitumoral
Anti-Inflammatory
Anti Bacterial
Antiviral
Antiparasitic
Analgesic/Anesthetic

Myrrh has had many uses throughout the years and here are just a few:
Diabetes
Cancer
Hepatitis
Fungal Infections(Candida / Ringworm
Tooth / Gum Infections
Skin Conditions (Eczema / Cracked and Dry Skin / Wrinkles and Stretch Marks.

Fragrant Advantages of Myrrh include:
Promotes Spiritual awareness and is uplifting because it contains
Sesquiterpenes which stimulate the limbic system of the brain (the center of memory and emotions). Myrrh is found in many of our essential oils.

Genesis:43:11: And their father Israel said unto them, if it must be now, do this; take of the best fruits in the land in your vessels, and carry down the man a present, a little balm, and a little honey, spices and myrrh, nuts and almonds.

Exodus: 30:23: "Take thou also unto thee principal spices, of pure Myrrh five hundred shekels, and of sweet cinnamon half so much, even two hundred and fifty shekels, and of sweet calamus two hundred and fifty shekels".
