2. The origins of myrrh and
frankincense are traced to the
Arabian Peninsula.
According to Herodotus (5th
century BC): "Arabia is the only
country which produces
frankincense, myrrh, cassia and
cinnamon...the trees bearing
the frankincense are guarded by
winged serpents of small size
and various colors."

3. Myrrh is a resin, or sap-like
substance, that comes from a
tree called Commiphora
myrrha, common in Africa or
the Middle East. Myrrh is
botanically related to
Frankincense, and is one of the
most widely used essential oils
in the world.The myrrh tree is
distinctive due to its white
flowers and knotted trunk.

4. Sandalwood oil is extracted
from the woods for use.
Sandalwood is the second most
expensive wood in the world,
right after African Blackwood.
Both the wood and the oil
produce a distinctive fragrance
that has been highly valued for
centuries.
Onycha, spoken of in Exodus
30:34, was one of the
ingredients of the sacred
perfume. It consists of the shells
of several kinds of mussels,
which when burned emit a
strong odor.
