Biblical Aromatherapy

by Robert Bike

The Bible mentions about 232 plants by name, or closely enough to figure out what plant is meant. Of these, 24 are aromatic plants; that is, parts of the plants can be pressed or distilled to get an essential oil. Essential oils are the lifeblood of plants and have tremendous healing capabilities.

The healing power of plants is the basis for modern medicines.

Biblical Aromatherapy
discusses how the plants were used in biblical days and how you can use the essential oils from biblical plants.

Originally published in manuscript form in 1999, I completely revised the book and added illustrations.

Lincoln is the ultimate politician, always shaking hands and introducing himself, even to out-of-staters.

President Lincoln told us about the Freeport Doctrine, what it was, and its importance in politics in the 1850s.

Lincoln read to us the Gettysburg Address, just an afterthought at the time, but one of the greatest speeches of all time.

Mr. Lincoln talked about attending the Ford Theatre one evening in April, 1865, then everything went dark.

Sherry Ingram & Gregg Kaiser.

Chris Nichols, Randy Hawley & Linda Cole.
