In Ancient Times/Ancient Story: Myrrh is a bitter resin coming from the Myrrh tree, which is said to have hailed from ancient Africa and Arabia. Myrrh was recorded as a bitter and neutral herb during the Tang Dynasty in 600 AD China under the localized name, Mo Yao. During late medieval times, German physician Valerius Cordius and Swiss naturalist Conrad Gesner collectively distilled myrrh oil (in 1540) and recognized its usefulness for ointments and external remedies.
Ancient Usage: Due to its many impressive applications, myrrh resin and oil was a precious commodity to the early Egyptians. In Egypt, it was used soothe irritation and minor injuries, as well as to embalm Egyptian mummies. Egyptian noble women also used myrrh oil to rejuvenate their skin as part of their beauty routine.
Resins are the oldest form of incense and myrrh resin was burned during religious ceremonies, including the sacred temples of old Jerusalem. In China, the resin was and is still used to relieve muscle discomfort and inflammation, believed to promote circulation of the blood, and ancient Greek soldiers carried vials of myrrh oil as part of their equipment to aid in recovery from battle.
Ancient Beliefs: Myrrh is chronicled in the Bible as a gift of the Magi to the baby Jesus of Nazareth, and Myrrh resin is a sacred incense that represents Christ’s suffering since it was present at both his birth and just before his death. It is said that Jesus Christ was given wine mixed with myrrh just before he was crucified.
