Frankincense and the oil produced from it have been known in the Middle East for thousands of years for their magical powers and ability to improve communication with the creator, long before it was offered as a gift to Christ by the Magi. There are over 52 references to it in the Bible. Egyptian records show numerous references to it, including its use in cosmetics, perfumes, and as an embalming agent. The harvest of gums and resins takes place during the dry season, as they are easily damaged by rain. Several incisions are made into the bark, and the gum resins are allowed to ooze out and solidify for a few weeks. The harvesters then return to each tree to collect the resin. The resins are then transported to local villages, where they are further dried in the shade.
Superior Hojari Frankincense is considered one of the highest grades of Frankincense in the world. The medium-sized translucent tears are white, yellow, amber, and pale green. This type of frankincense is considered to be the best, with a wonderful, rich aroma. This is the Frankincense kings! This is also highly likely to be the same frankincense offered to Jesus as an infant by the wise men! Boswellia sacra (commonly known as frankincense olibanum tree) is a tree in the Burseraceae family. It is native to the Arabian Peninsula (Oman, Yemen).
Hojari Superior can be used in drinking water to add aromatic fragrance to the water. It is also said to clean the air and kill bacteria that multiply in the throat and stomach. In Oman, this type of superior frankincense was burned in churches, temples, and mosques to add aromatic fragrance. Also, wealthy people burn frankincense in their homes to create a sense of luxury, especially when receiving guests.
