As one customer shared with us, the
Yemen Myrrh is the best ever sampled and that was said by a real connoisseur so
imagine our delight to receive "two thumbs up" after trying our
product! Though it is nearly twice the cost of
India
's
myrrh, it is beyond twice as good.
Taken
from the internet, the following is an excerpt about myrrh;
It
was used chiefly in embalming the dead, because it had the property of
preserving them from putrefaction. (John 19:39). It was much used in
Egypt
and in
Judea
.
It was at an early period an article of commerce, (Genesis 37:25) and was an
ingredient of the holy ointment, Exodus 30:23. It was also used as an agreeable
perfume( Esther
2:12
;
Psalms 45:8; Proverbs
7:17
).
For many of the ancients, myrrh was considered to be a favorite perfume, said to
keep its fragrance for several hundred years when kept in an alabaster pot.
Myrrh also had medicinal qualities, sometimes mingled with wine to form an
article of drink. Such a drink was given to our Savior, when about to be
crucified, as a stupefying potion, (Mark
15:23
;
Matthew 27:34).
