Description of Botanical Coloring Page: Flax  is  the  earliest  material  known  to  have been  manufactured  for  clothing  purposes.  The mummies  of  Egypt  were  always  wrapped  up  in linen; and  in  the  sculptures  on  Egyptian  temples the  cultivation  of  flax,  and  the  processes  of  preparation, spinning,  and  weaving  linen  are  represented. Linen  was  used  for  the  curtains  and hangings  of  the  Tabernacle  (Exodus  26),  and  for  the ephod,  breastplate,  coat,  breeches,  girdle,  bonnet, and  mitre  of  the  high-priest  (Exodus.  27-29).  The body  of  the  Lord  was  wrapped  in  linen  cloths before  being  laid  in  the  grave  (John  19. 40,  and  20: 5,  7).  Flax  is an  annual  plant,  which  has  a  quantity of  fine,  tough  fibers  in  its  stem.  It  is  still cultivated  in  the Middle East,  and  the  species  used  for making  linen  may  be  found  as  an  escape  from cultivation  growing  on  hillsides.  It  ripened earlier  than  the  wheat,  and  suffered  with  the barley  in  the  plague  of  hail,  for  it  was  full-grown,  and  the  flowers  were  open  (Exodus  9.  31).

Description of Botanical Coloring Page: Mandrake  occurs  in  two  passages  in  the Bible  (Genesis  30:14;  Song  of  Solomon  7: 13),  in  connection with  its  imaginary  virtues  in  love  incantations, for  which  it  has  been  long  and  widely  famous. The  mandrake  is  a  stemless  plant,  with  a large  and  branching  root,  dark-green  leaves,  and a  yellow  fruit  about  the  size  of  a  large  plum.  Its affinities  are  with  the  potato  and  nightshade. The  root,  somewhat  manipulated,  may  be  made to  look  a  little  like  the  human  figure.  The  revisers have  in  the  margin  of  Genesis  30: 14  suggested "love-apple,"  but  this  is  only  applied  to the  tomato,  an  American  plant.  The  mandrake is  common  throughout  Palestine,  especially  in deserted  fields.

Description of Botanical Coloring Page: Melons  were  lusted  after  by  the  Israelites  in the  wilderness,  with  other  articles  of  food  which they  had  in  Egvpt  (Numbers  11: 5).  Melons  were early  cultivated  in  Egypt.  The  water-melon,  on account  of  its  abundant  refreshing  juice,  was  a great  favorite  there,  as  it  is  to-day  in  most countries  that  have  a  hot  dry  summer.  The common  melon  was  also  cultivated  and  supplied a  certain  amount  of  food,  with  a  sweeter  though less  abundant  juice.  The  Hebrew  word  is abattechem,  and  this  is  still  retained  by  the  Arabs, who  call  both  melons  batteekh.

Description of Botanical Coloring Page: The Gall Oak (Quercus infectoria) is found on the hills and mountains in the north of Palestine. It is a small tree, well known for the galls it bears. These are produced by a small fly (cynips), which lays its eggs in the bark of the tender branches. The galls were largely used in the manufacture of ink in ancient times. The second word el, translated "oak" refers, when it means a tree (as in Isaiah 1:29), to the teil tree [q.v.].

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
and download file.
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.
