Concise Bible Dictionary
:
One of
the
ingredients of the
holy
anointing
oil
. The
Hebrew
word is
qaneh
, and is
three
times
translated “
calamus
.”
God
lamented that
Israel
did not buy any
sweet
cane
for
Him
(Isa. 43:24); and when
they
did
bring
it from afar, it was no longer sweet to Him because of their waywardness and
sin
(Jer. 6:20).
