This episode follows three of them: spikenard from the high Himalayas to the altar at Jerusalem, calamus from India into the anointing oil God gave Moses, and frankincense — a compound Dioscorides said 'caused madness,' burning in every enclosed temple in the ancient world.
What the physician catalogued, the priest kept hidden.
