The lign-aloe is (in Heb. Ahalim, Ahaloth) the name of a costly and
sweet-smelling wood which is mentioned in (Numbers 24:6; Psalms 45:8;
Proverbs 7:17; Song of Solomon 4:14; John 19:39) It is usually
identified with the Aquilaria agollochum, an aromatic wood much valued
in India. This tree sometimes grows to the height of 120 feet, being 12
