Healing Herbs from the Bible
Number two is Cinnamon
Exodus 30:22-27
Cinnamon is obtained from the inner bark of different species of the genus Cinnamomum. In the Bible, it was used as an aromatic condiment. It was described as sweet-smelling and used as an ingredient in the holy anointing oil used to anoint the tabernacle and its vessels.
