Hundreds of years, or better, thousands of years have passed since the Queen of Saba gave to Salomon gold and the Balm of Judea, or Arabian Balm, as a symbol of her admiration for the Jewish people, to Salomon wisdom, and to the G-d of Israel. She was so impressed about the teachings, the faith, and the believe in this G-d. The Balm of Judea became the most powerful symbol of beauty and a sacred aroma for the Jews. It was the eternal scent in the first temple, and was given to the Jews from this developed woman and queen from the old Yemen. Cleopatra was a historical of perfumes and she wrote maybe the first written work about them, and the Balm of the Jews had a chapter in it. Later her written work was lost after the fire in the library of Alexandria of Egypt. The history said that Cleopatra built the first Spa of the history in the Red Sea, inspired by the queen of Saba and the care she had for the body and soul using oils and perfumes.
What needed to happen to these cultures to decrease in values and development? Now you have the Houthis who send you armed drones and missiles, not compliments or Arabian Balm, or Balm of Judea!
O tempora,o mores.
