The specific blend of incense, including chelbenah, was considered holy and was used exclusively for worship. Galbanum, the substance identified as chelbenah, is a gum resin obtained from certain plants in the Ferula genus, native to the Middle East. It was valued for its fragrance and was often mixed with other spices to create a pleasing aroma.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from the same as <a href="/hebrew/2459.htm">cheleb</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>gum (a type used in incense)<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>galbanum (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> <font class="hebrew2">חֶלְבְּנָה</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun feminine</b></font> (Aramaic <img src="/bdbgif/bdb031701.gif">, <font class="hebrew2">חֶלְבְּנִיתָא</font> <font class="hebrew2">ᵐ5</font> <font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">χαλβάνη</font>, <font class="hebrew2">ᵑ9</font> <em>galbanum</em>) — a kind of gum <a href="/interlinear/exodus/30-34.htm">Exodus 30:34</a>, ingredient of the holy incense, see Di Löw<sup>115</sup>. <br><br><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/bsoft2.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>galbanum <p>From <a href="/hebrew/2459.htm">cheleb</a>;
