The
word 'herb' appears frequently in the
King James Version (KJV) of the Bible,
and has been interpreted by some as a
justification for the use of the
so-called 'holy herb' (marijuana) for
meditative and curative purposes.
However, the word has changed its meaning
over the centuries, as have many other
words also found in the KJV. Smoking
marijuana is not a biblical concept.
I include the image here because I
consider the shape of the marijuana leaf
aesthetically very beautiful. |
