In the Bible, myrrh is often associated with perfumes, anointing oils, and embalming practices. It is noted for its aromatic qualities and was considered a valuable commodity in ancient times.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>Myrrh was highly prized in the ancient Near East for its fragrance and medicinal properties. It was used in religious rituals, as a perfume, and for embalming the dead. Myrrh was one of the gifts brought by the Magi to Jesus, symbolizing His future suffering and death. The resin was harvested by making incisions in the bark of the Commiphora myrrha tree, allowing the sap to ooze out and harden into tear-shaped droplets.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/4843.htm">marar</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>myrrh<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>myrrh (12).<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">מֹר</font>, <font class="hebrew2">מוֺר</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun masculine</b></font><sup>Song of Solomon 5:5</sup> <font size="+1"><b>myrrh</b></font> (from <em>bitter</em> taste; Assyrian <i><em>murru</em></i> Meissn<sup>Suppl. 60</sup>; Arabic <img src="/bdbgif/bdb060006.gif">; compare Lag<sup>BN 40</sup>); — absolute <font class="hebrew2">מֹר</font> <a href="/interlinear/psalms/45-9.htm">Psalm 45:9</a> 5t., <font class="hebrew2">מוֺר</font> <a href="/interlinear/songs/4-6.htm">Songs 4:6</a> 3t.
