From Biblical Times to Modern Healing: The Miraculous Power of Kaneh BosmWelcome back to the Roots to Riches podcast! I'm your host, Justin Benton, and today we're diving into one of my absolute favorite topics: the ancient and miraculous healing power of Kaneh Bosm, which translates to cannabis. This episode is packed with mind-blowing revelations and historical insights that could transform your understanding of natural healing and spirituality.IntroductionWe kick off the episode by discussing the potential role of anointing oil in the miraculous healings performed by Jesus and his disciples. While the Gospels emphasize Jesus' healing through touch and command, it's likely that anointing oil, deeply rooted in Jewish traditions, played a significant role behind the scenes.Kaneh Bosm: The Lost SacramentThe main focus of this episode is on Kaneh Bosm, a term that means cannabis. This sacred ingredient was part of the holy anointing oil described in Exodus 30:22-25. God instructed Moses to create this oil using specific ingredients, including 250 shekels of cannabis, myrrh, cinnamon, and olive oil. This oil was used to consecrate priests, prophets, and kings, setting them apart for divine purposes.Historical and Biblical ContextWe delve into the historical and biblical context of Kaneh Bosm, highlighting its use in ancient Hebrew traditions and its potential role in Jesus' healing missions. The theory that Kaneh Bosm was mistranslated as calamus in ancient texts is supported by archaeological findings and the research of scholars like Chris Bennett and Polish anthropologist Sula Benet.Modern Implications and Personal StoriesI share my personal journey of discovering the healing power of raw cannabis, particularly in helping my son overcome severe autism. This leads to a broader discussion on the benefits of plant-based medicine and the shortcomings of the pharmaceutical industry. We touch on the recent appointment of Robert Kennedy Jr. as the Secretary of Health and Human Services, signaling a potential shift towards more natural and holistic health practices.Biblical References and Healing PracticesWe explore various biblical references that support the use of anointing oil in healing practices. Passages from Mark 6:13 and James 5:14-15, among others, suggest that anointing with oil was a common practice in early Christianity, likely originating from Jesus' teachings.Call to ActionI encourage listeners to do their own research on Kaneh Bosm and its historical significance. I express my desire to have this conversation with influential figures like the Pope and Joe Rogan to further spread awareness about the healing power of cannabis.ASK THIS EPISODE ANYTHINGTIMESTAMPS00:00:00 - Introduction to Roots to Riches Podcast00:00:41 - Host Introduction and Podcast Theme00:01:03 - Personal Anecdote and Introduction to Cannabossum00:01:34 - Cannabossum and Its Historical Context00:02:07 - Ingredients of the Holy Anointing Oil00:02:29 - Jesus and the Tradition of Anointing Oil00:03:01 - Historical Use of Cannabossum in Religious Practices00:04:06 - Misidentification of Cannabossum as Calamus00:05:00 - Translation Errors in Ancient Texts00:06:04 - Modern Relevance of Plant-Based Medicine00:07:08 - Personal Story of Using Raw Cannabis for Healing00:08:04 - The Importance of Plant-Based Medicine00:09:07 - The Role of Cannabis in Ancient Cultures00:10:03 - Biblical References to Anointing Oil00:11:07 - Jesus' Healing Missions and Anointing Oil00:12:21 - Early Christian Healing Practices00:13:04 - Jesus as the Anointed One00:14:08 - Conclusion on the Use of Anointing Oil00:15:04 - Modern Implications and Personal Mission00:16:08 - The Endocannabinoid System and Human Health00:17:19 - The Evolution of Cannabis and Human Use00:18:07 - Call for a New Approach to Medicine00:19:00 - Critique of the Pharmaceutical Industry00:20:05 - The Role of RFK Jr. in Health Policy00:21:09 - The Human Endocannabinoid System00:22:03 - Jesus' Healing Mission and Cannabis00:23:13 - Encouragement for Personal Research00:24:24 - The Importance of Organic and Homegrown Food00:25:18 - Call to Action: Grow Your Own Food00:26:01 - Closing Remarks and Mission Statement Thank you for tuning in to the Miracle Plant Podcast.

Cannabis, Kaneh Bosm, and the Quest to Heal the World by 2025In this episode of the Miracle Plant Podcast, I delve into the incredible healing properties of cannabis, also known as Kaneh Bosm, and its historical significance. I share a personal anecdote about how our Miracle Plant Roll-On provided immediate relief for my toe pain, emphasizing the plant's efficacy without side effects or drug interactions.We kick off 2025 with our ongoing mission to reach a billion people by the end of the year, spreading awareness about the transformative power of this miracle plant. I discuss our recent launch of the Kaneh Bosm Connection, linking the ancient use of Kaneh Bosm in the Holy Anointing Oil to modern-day cannabis. This connection is rooted in historical texts, including the Old Testament and the Dead Sea Scrolls, which highlight the plant's use for healing by high priests and even Jesus Christ.I emphasize the importance of going viral to achieve our mission, whether through social media, podcasts, or influential platforms. I also touch on the potential impact of educating religious leaders, like the Pope, about the true nature of cannabossum. This could shift the global perception of cannabis, especially among the 2 billion Catholics worldwide.Throughout the episode, I critique the pharmaceutical industry and advocate for a return to plant-based medicine. I highlight the dangers of synthetic drugs and the benefits of natural remedies like cannabis. I also discuss the historical mistranslation of cannabossum in biblical texts and its implications for modern medicine.Finally, I encourage listeners to do their own research, engage in conversations, and explore the benefits of this miracle plant. Our goal is to change the way people think about cannabis, from a stigmatized drug to a powerful, natural healer. As always, we end the episode with our mission statement: "Heal the world," aiming to inspire and educate as many people as possible about the healing potential of cannabis.

What was the secret sacred elixirs known as Soma and Homa in the ancient world? Was it a psychedelic? Stimulant? Or something else? We will take a look at all the options tonight.

How can you create a sense of adventure and belonging in your family, even when life gets messy? What are the essential values that help cultivate a healthy and connected family? In this episode I interview Julie and Chris Bennett, authors of Fighting for Family, The Relentless Pursuit of Building Belonging. The Bennetts share their journey of moving from Oklahoma to Los Angeles and how this adventurous leap, combined with facing personal challenges like Julie's battle with cancer, has shaped their family dynamics. Julie and Chris Bennett are the founders of Welcome Home Lifestyle which exists to create and promote content that celebrates all things family. Both Julie and Chris are graduates of Baylor University and have spent the majority of their 23 years of marriage working in vocational ministry. Through overwhelming challenges, they have learned how to fight for the things that matter and devote themselves to helping others do the same. Alongside their passion for building belonging for others, they love nothing more than beach football, spontaneous road trips, and throwing a good party. The Bennetts live in Malibu, CA where Chris serves as lead pastor of Vintage Church Malibu. They emphasize the importance of intentionality in building family connections, advocating for open and honest conversations, and believing the best about each other, even during tough times. The Bennetts discuss their six core values for cultivating family, which include seeking to understand before being understood and working through hard things instead of walking away. They also highlight the significance of humility, vulnerability, and the willingness to learn from each other, noting that a healthy family is about being real and embracing the messiness of life together.

"The best way to relax at the starting line is to take a deep breath, and say, 'This is fun as hell.' Doesn't mean it's not scary! Doesn't mean it's gonna be easy! It's just fun as hell. And then go have some fun!" Everyone's favorite "Ted Lasso of Running" returns to the Ali on the Run Show today for a pre-race pep talk! Coach Chris Bennett is Nike Running's Global Head Coach, and he's here to give it to you straight. He has advice on dealing with a bad race, tips for staying sane during the final days of taper, and a message for all of the soon-to-be marathoners. Whether you're making your 26.2-mile debut this spring, or you're chasing a big personal best, Coach wants you to celebrate, he wants you to race well, and, most importantly, he wants you to have an awesome time out there.
