m1? Hope in the Lor. Be strong and of good courage, Ps. 27 and hope in the LORD! There is no other one holy like the LORD, 1Sam.2 for there is none besides You, there is no Rock like our God. For who but the LORD is God; who is a Rock apart from our God? Ps. 18 witha } There is none like our God, none like our LORD, none like our King, none like our Savior. Who is like our God? Who is like our LORD? Who is like our King? Who is like our Savior? We will thank our God, we will thank our LORD, we will thank our King, we will thank our Savior. Blessed is our God, blessed is our LORD, blessed is our King, blessed is our Savior. You are our God, You are our LORD, You are our King, You are our Savior. You are He to whom our ancestors offered the fragrant incense. Mbp OWS The incense mixture consisted of balsam, onycha, galbanum Keritot 6a and frankincense, each weighing seventy manehs; myrrh, cassia, spikenard and saffron, each weighing sixteen manehs; twelve manehs of costus, three of aromatic bark; nine of cinnamon; nine kabs of Carsina lye; three seahs and three kabs of Cyprus wine. If Cyprus wine was not available, old white wine might be used. A quarter of a kab of Sodom salt, and a minute amount of a smoke-raising herb. Rabbi Nathan says: Also a minute amount of Jordan amber. If one added honey to the mixture, he rendered it unfit for sacred use. If he omitted any one of its ingredients, he is guilty of a capital offense. Rabban Shimon ben Gamliel says: "Balsam" refers to the sap that drips from the balsam tree. The Carsina lye was used for bleaching the onycha to improve it. The Cyprus wine was used to soak the onycha in it to make it pungent. Though urine is suitable for this purpose, it is not brought into the Temple out of respect.
