Gifts Of Gold
Were Very Rare
In Biblical Days

And when they had opened
their treasures. they presented
unto Him gifts; gold, and
frankincenSe, and myrrh-"
Thus ST. Matthew describes
the first Christmas gifts Of all,
brought 10 the Christ Child by
wise men from the East. =
Each of the gifts was rare and,
especially in Biblical times,
truly a treasure.
Among the gifts, the value
and beauty of gold is most
readily apparent TO modern
readers. Then. however, its
worth was even greater, for 1t
was still more rare and pre-
cious than il is today. Archae-
illogical diggings in ancient
Troy. Crete and Egypt have re-
vealed that articles of gold were
usually royal treasures.
Since St. Matthew says the
wise men were from the East,
their gold may have come from
the mines Of Indian MysOre.
Frankincense, or "Olibanum,"
Is a gum resin which flows
from a tree growing on bare
rocks in the mountains Of south
ern Asia and northeastern
Africa. II was formerly used in
medicine but is now chiefly en-
plOyed as incense in Catholic
churches and Indian and
Chinese temples.
Myrrh is the popular name
for a gum resin obtained from
a small gray-barked tree which
grows in Arabia and adjacent
Africa. From earliest times IL
has been used for making in
cense and other perfumes, The
Encyclopedia Americana says.
