出埃及记 30章34节 到 30章34节 背景资料 上一笔 下一笔

     * unto thee.
     # 23; 25:6; 37:29|
     * stacte.  Heb. nataph.
       The Jews and others suppose it to be what was afterwards
       called the balm of Jericho, or Gilead.

     * onycha.
       The word {shechaileth} is generally allowed to denote onycha,
       (nail-fish, from its form,) as it is rendered by the LXX. and
       Vulgate.  It is the shell of the purpura, and of the whole
       class of murex; and serves as the basis of the principal
       perfumes in India.

     * galbanum.
       {Chelbenah,} (probably from {chalay,} milk or gum, and
       {lavan,} white,) is the gummy, resinous juice of an
       umbelliferous plant, the {bubon gumniferum} of Linn(9175)s,
       growing in Syria, Persia, and Africa.  It rises with a
       ligneous stalk from eight to ten feet, and is garnished with
       leaves at every joint.  The top of the stalk is terminated by
       an umbel of yellow flowers which are succeeded by oblong
       channelled seeds, which have a thin membrane or wing on their
       border.  When any part of the plant is broken, there issues
       out a little thin juice, of a cream colour, of a fat, tough
       substance, like gum ammoniac, composed of many small, shining
       grains, of a strong, piercing smell and a sharp, warm taste.

     * frankincense.
     # Le 2:1,15; 5:11; 24:7; 1Ch 9:29,30; Ne 13:5; So 3:6; Mt 2:11|
