American Balm of Gilead
(c) American Balm of Gilead: a resin obtained from the Icica carana. Balsamodendron probably yields the βάλσαμον, balsamum, of the ancients. The term ‘balm of Gilead’ is modern, and like the botanical specific name Gileadense, originated in the assumption that this is the substance mentioned in the Bible as found in Gilead, and called in the English translation ‘balm.’ But the Hebrew word tsŏri rendered ‘balm’ was not identified with βάλσαμον, balsamum by the Septuagint or Vulgate, which render it ῥητίνη, resina, resin. ‘Balm’ began with Coverdale.
extracted from balmn.1
