Balm of Gilead Anointing Oil - 1/2oz

Balm of Gilead - Healing of Wounds

Balm of Gilead was an ancient, highly-valued salve or ointment which was used to soothe and heal. Mentioned several times in the Bible and named for the region of Gilead where it was produced, it was  a major commodity of trade in the ancient world.   Its name became associated with the power to heal and soothe.  "There is a Balm in Gilead" is an African-American spiritual that compares the healing balm to the saving power of Jesus - the one true treatment that never fails to heal our wounds: spirit, soul and body.

"Since my people are crushed, I am crushed; I mourn, and horror grips me. Is there no balm in Gilead? Is there no physician there? Why then is there no healing for the wounds of my people?" -Jeremiah 8:21-22

Balm of Gilead is a deciduous tree that grows at a fast rate, reaching up to 100 feet tall at maturity.  It is a hybrid tree resulting from a cross between the poplar and cottonwood trees.  It now commonly refers to the buds of a species of North American poplar.
