<p> '''''kash´a''''' : Two Hebrew words, (1) קדּה , <i> '''''ḳiddāh''''' </i> , which is mentioned, along with myrrh, cinnamon, calamus and olive oil, as one of the ingredients of the "holy anointing oil" ( Exodus 30:24 ); it was, too, one of the wares in which [[Vedan]] and [[Javan]] traded with [[Tyre]] ( Ezekiel 27:19 ); it is identified in the Peshitta and the [[Targum]] with (2). (2) קציעות , <i> '''''ḳecı̄‛ōth''''' </i> (plural only, probably referring to the strips of bark), a word from which is derived the Greek κασία , <i> '''''kası́a''''' </i> , and hence, cassia ( Psalm 45:8 ). It is probable that both (1) and (2) refer to <i> Cassia lignea </i> , the inner bark of <i> Cinnamomum cassia </i> , a plant growing in eastern Asia closely allied to that which yields the cinnamon of commerce. It is a fragrant, aromatic bark and was probably used in a powdered form. Both as an ingredient in unguents and as one of the perfumes at funerals, cassia, like cinnamon, was much used by the Romans. The cassia of [[Scripture]] must be clearly distinguished from the entirely distinct <i> Cassia lanceolata </i> and <i> C. obovata </i> which yield the familiar senna. The proper name [[Keziah]] (which see) is the singular form of <i> '''''ḳecı̄‛ōth''''' </i> ̌ . </p> | <p> ''''' kash´a ''''' : Two Hebrew words, (1) קדּה , <i> ''''' ḳiddāh ''''' </i> , which is mentioned, along with myrrh, cinnamon, calamus and olive oil, as one of the ingredients of the "holy anointing oil" ( Exodus 30:24 ); it was, too, one of the wares in which [[Vedan]] and [[Javan]] traded with [[Tyre]] ( Ezekiel 27:19 ); it is identified in the Peshitta and the [[Targum]] with (2).
