Ezekiel 47:

12. And by the river upon the bank thereof, on this side and on that side, shall grow all trees for meat, whose leaf shall not fade, neither shall the fruit thereof be consumed: it shall bring forth new fruit according to his months, because their waters they issued out of the sanctuary: and the fruit thereof shall be for meat, and the leaf thereof for medicine.

Colossians 4:

14. Luke, the beloved physician,

Isaiah 38:

21. For Isaiah had said, Let them take a bunch of figs, and lay them for a plaster on the boil, and it will be healed.

Figs also seem to help with a boil.

"Candied fruits were used in the past (also in our country) to treat boils and suppurating wounds. Concentrated sugar solutions, such as these figs, are highly hygroscopic. That is to say, the dried figs tend to attract moisture."

Dutch:

Jesaja 38:

21. Want Jesaja had gezegd: Laat ze een bosje vijgen nemen, en leg die tot een pleister op de zweer, en hij zal genezen.

Vijgen schijnen dus ook voor een zweer te helpen.

Gekonfijte vruchten werden vroeger (ook in ons land) wel gebruikt om zweren en etterende wonden te behandelen. Geconcentreerde suikeroplossingen, zoals bij deze vijgen, zijn sterk hygroscopisch. Dat wil zeggen dat de gedroogde vijgen de neiging hebben om vocht aan te trekken.

Nardus (Nardostachys jatamansi),
Hysop (Origanum syriacum),
Balsem van Gilead (Commiphora gileadensis) en

Jeremiah 8:

22. Is there no balm in Gilead; is there no physician there? why then is not the health of the daughter of my people recovered?

Jeremiah 46:

11. Go up into Gilead, and take balm, O virgin, the daughter of Egypt: in vain shalt thou use many medicines; for thou shalt not be cured.

Songs 4:

13. Your thighs shelter a paradise of pomegranates with rare spices henna with nard,

14. nard and saffron, fragrant calamus and cinnamon, with all the trees of frankincense, myrrh, and aloes, and every other lovely spice.

Mark 14:

3. Meanwhile, Jesus was in Bethany at the home of Simon, a man who had previously had leprosy. While he was eating,[fn] a woman came in with a beautiful alabaster jar of expensive perfume made from essence of nard. She broke open the jar and poured the perfume over his head.

John 12:
