Yes … it’s in the Bible (Torah) … called Kanna Bosem, see Exodus 30:23 in Hebrew …. but only the Cohen are supposed to use it.

Take the finest spices: of liquid myrrh five hundred shekels, and of sweet-smelling cinnamon half as much, that is, two hundred and fifty, and of Qaneh Bosem two hundred and fifty. (Exodus 30:23)

… The passage above lists the ingredients in the “holy anointing oil” that was to be used by the priests to anoint the tabernacle and the priesthood. This topic may be a little controversial, but I think it is an important one as a lot of people have asked me over the years if the Hebrew phrase קנה בשם (qaneh bosem, often spelled kaneh bosem), translated as “aromatic cane” in the verse above, is a Biblical Hebrew phrase for cannabis, also called marijuana or hemp.

Hey

Yes sure I know about קנה בושם

It's maybe sounds like cannabis but I'm not sure if it's about cannabis.

Sounds like some kind of incense. Maybe myrrh and frankincense.
