Color Mustard that Grows In The Bible Lands

Mustard. With  a  separate  fruit,  a  fruit  in
 section,  and  a  seed. Click on image to 
download largest size.
Description of Botanical Coloring Page: Mustard is  mentioned  only  in  a  parable  of the  Lord  (Mat.  13.  31,  32),  where  the  largeness  of the  plant  grown  from  the  very  small  seed  is  used as  an  illustration  of  the  increase  of  the  kingdom of  heaven.  It  is,  no  doubt,  the  annual  herb  from which  is  obtained  the  mustard  used  as  a  condiment. This  grows  in  Palestine,  and  attains  a greater  height  in  the  East  than  in  more  temperate countries.  It  has  been  suggested  that  the small  tree  Salvadora  persica  which  has  a  pungent fruit,  might  be  the  mustard  of Scripture, and  it  has  consequently  received  the  name  of "mustard-tree."  This tree  is  found  in  Palestine only  around  the  Dead  Sea,  being  a native  of regions  farther  east.  The  common  mustard meets  all  the  requirements  of  the  text,  while the  mustard-tree  could  not  be  spoken  of  as  "the greatest  among  herbs."

Color Frankincense

Frankincense  Tree. With  separate  flower  and 
 fruit,  and  section  of  a  fruit. Click to enlarge

Description of Botanical Coloring Page: Frankincense is one of  the  ingredients of  the  holy  oil  for  anointing  priests  at  their  consecration (Exodus 30: 34).  It  was  to  be  added  to  the meat  offering,  and  to  be  burnt  on  the  altar  as  an offering  of  sweet  savor  (Leviticus  2: 2).   The  tree  producing this odoriferous gum-resin  was  not  a  native of Palestine. The  dromedaries  of  Midian,  Ephah,  and Sheba  (Jeremiah  6: 20)  brought  it  to the  Jews, so that it appears to have come from Arabia. There  can  be  no  doubt  that  it  was  ontained from trees named Boswellia, which grow in Arabia and in Somali-land --the part of Africa opposite to Arabia.  The trees  have  compound, glossy leaves, and numerous small white, starlike flowers.

Description of the Botanical Coloring Page:  The  common  almond  (Amyridalus communis), indigenous  in  the  Mediterranean region,  and  cultivated  in  sub-tropical  countries, is  well  known from  the  early  appearance  of  its flowers,  as  if  they  were  waiting  for  the  milder weather  to  open  their  buds.  The  leafless  branches covered  with  beautiful  pink  flowers  are  among the  first  harbingers of  spring.  The Hebrew name shaked, meaning to hasten or watch, is given  to the  tree  on  this  account.  There  is  a  play on the meaning of the word in  Jeremiah.  1:11, 12.  In  answerto  God's  question,  the  prophet  says,  "I see a rod of an almond tree  [shaked];  "and the  Lord  said, "Thou  hast  well  seen,  for  I  watch  [shaked] over my word to perform  it."  The almond grows wild on  he  higher lands of Palestine, blossoming in January.  Many  varieties  are  cultivated  - the chief  being  the  bitter  and  the  sweet  almond. There  are  frequent  references  to  this  tree  in  the Bible.  Jacob  sent  almonds  as  part  of  his  gift  to Joseph  (Gen.  43.  11).  The  bowls  of  the  golden candlestick  were  designed  from  the  flower  (Exodus 35: 33-35).  When  the  Israelites  rose  against  Moses and  Aaron,  the  Lord  manifested  his  choice  of Aaron  by  causing  his  rod  miraculously  to  bear buds  and  blossoms  and  fruits  before  the morning. In  nature  it  is  first  the  bud,  then  the  flower, and  afterwards  the  fruit,  and  here  the  miraculous is  evident  not  only  in  the  dry  rod  showing life,  but  in  the  three  stages  being  present  at  the same  time.  The  rod  was  preserved  as  a  token against  the  rebels  (Numbers  17).  The  figurative  description of  the  old  man  in  Ecclesiastes  (ch. 12) takes  one  of  its  metaphors  from  this  tree.  The hoary  locks  of  age  suggest  the  whitish  blossom of  the  almond  clothing  the  leafless  branches.

Description of Botanical Coloring Page:  A Reed, The  usual  translation  of  kaneh,  a plant  which  grew  in  the  water  in  such  abundance, and  to  such  a  height,  that  the  hippopotamus could  conceal  itself  amongst  it  (Job  40.  21). The  stem  was  long  and  straight,  and  was  consequently used  for  many  purposes;  and  the  name was  transferred  to  the  objects  made  of  it,  as  to a  cane  (this  word  being  derived  from  the  Hebrew  kaneh,  a  measuring  rod  (Ezekiel  40: 3),  a beam  of  the  balance.  The  plant  is,  with  little doubt,  Arundo  donax  -  a  tall  grass  that  usually grows  in  or  near  water.  The  ancients  made  the shafts  of  their  arrows  of  this  grass,  and  used  it also  for  flutes  and  pipes.  The  kalamos.  or  reed, of  the  New  Testament  is  the  same  plant. Reeds (Heb. agham) in  Jer. 51:32, rendered "marshes"  in  the  margin  of  R.V., no doubt refers  to  the  tall  marsh  plants  or  reeds  that  afforded protection  to  the  defenders  of  the  fords.

Description of the Botanical Coloring Page: The pomegranate is one  of  the  favorite  fruits of  Egypt,  and  a  witness  of  the  goodness  of  the land  to  which  the  Jews  were  journeying  (Deuteronomy 8:  8).  It  was,  and  continues  to  be,  extensively cultivated  in  Palestine.  It  is  a  small  tree  from fifteen  to  twenty-five  feet  high,  with  oblong leaves,  scarlet  flowers,  and  round  fruit  the  size of  a  large  apple.    A  hard  rind  of  a  yellowish color  encloses  the  numerous  seeds,  which  are attached  to  a  white  membrane  that  is  extremely bitter.  Kach  seed  is  enclosed  in  a  cool,  delicious, red  pulp,  which  makes  the  pomegranate  a highly-valued  fruit  in  hot  countries.  The  hem of  the  high -priest's  robe  was  ornamented  with figures  of  pomegranates,  executed  in  blue, purple  and  scarlet,  and  alternating  with  golden bells  (Exodus 28: 33, 34).  The  pomegranate  was  employed for  the decorative  carving  on  the  capitals of  the  columns  of  the  porch  of  Solomon's  Temple (1  Kings  7: 18).  Rimmon,  the  Hebrew  word  for "pomegranate," is  found  in  the  names  of  several places  in  Palestine.
