The Secret in Cedar Tree(Cedrus Libani)

in #lebanon2 years ago

The secret in the Cedar tree, technically called "Cedrus libani" or "Cedar tree", the tree is on the flag of the country of Lebanon, see the photo below.

This tree grows very slowly and its roots go very low.

It thrives in hot and cold weather and in wet and dry weather, it also produces very hard wood and was used in the construction of temples and palaces in the past.

It is mentioned a lot in the Bible, even the ark of the covenant is made of a cedar tree and it is widely available in the country of Lebanon 🇱🇧 so that tree has become a symbol of that country.

That is why until now there has been a symbol of that tree on the flag of Lebanon.

Also, the cedar tree can change the salt water by absorbing all the salt and it becomes salt-free water.

The Catholic Church has a poem about this tree, which sings "The faithful servant will flourish like the palm tree of Lebanon... He will be like the cedar of Lebanon" (catholic song)

In the science of alternative medicine, they believe that the tree's leaves help in expelling demons.

For the tribes of wachagga in disasters during the funeral, they must have a crown made of cedar branches.

Also, when its sap dries, it is the perfume we use.

This is the Cedrus libani or Cedar tree.
