# ...thou shalt eat the herb of the field (Genesis 3:18).
# ...eat every herb of the land (Exodus 10:12).
# Better is a dinner of herb where love is, than a stalled ox and hatred therewith (Proverbs 15:17).
# He causeth the grass to grow for the cattle, and herb for the service of man. ...(Psalm 104:14).
Is this genuine in such that god has condoned use of cannabis? The Rastafarians believe so, do you agree with them or not??

Well, god considers getting stoned to be righteous, but is not specific about the drug. Noah, the only man worth saving in the whole world, got so smashed he was stumbling about naked, and Lot, the only righteous man in Sodom, was so out of his mind he didn't realise he was screwing his own daughters! (But god wanted them to commit incest, so it was okay!)
The list could go on and on!

while grow to be alcohol first pronounced in the Bible? while Cain(Cane) killed able regrettably your interpretation of the Bible is slightly skewed / misinformed... Exodus 30:22- 23 "Take here large spices: 500 shekels [a] of liquid myrrh, a million/2 as lots (this is, 250 shekels) of aromatic cinnamon, 250 shekels of aromatic cane, 24 500 shekels of cassia—all in accordance to the sanctuary shekel—and a hin [b] of olive oil. 25 Make those right into a sacred anointing oil, a aromatic blend, the artwork of a perfumer. this is going to be the sacred anointing oil." aromatic cane / CALAMUS A candy cane of Palestine (track of Solomon 4:14; Ezekiel 27:19) An factor of the holy ointment (Exodus 30:23; Isaiah 40 3:24) commerce in (Jeremiah 6:20; Ezekiel 27:19) I cant have faith human beings could study the entire Bible and purely concentration on the justification of their unlawful habit!! upload: ALF : LOL! :) Im sorry I dont think of you're reading the Bible for the properly suited motives in case you're only finding a justification for using drugs- that i presumed grow to be unlawful. I even have heard approximately its scientific properties, soreness alleviation for many cancers victims etc. I dont have faith the SA police could permit you pass in the event that they caught you with it, in spite of your motives.

The bible is littered with so-called prophets who were always high on something or the other, hence the visions.
I don't see why cannabis is a problem, someone is hiding something and doesn't want the rest of us to find out. That's all am saying.

Why do people say that herbs=cannabis? Herbs are food,not a drug.
"Is this genuine in such that god has condoned use of cannabis?"
Show me a verse that says 'Thou shalt be permitted to useth mind altering drugs for your own pleasure'.Nahh,I can't see it in there.God did not condone drug use.
"The Rastafarians believe so, do you agree with them or not??"
No,I do not.

since it says eat every herb of the land....
I do agree.
Personally, I've been smoking weed for a while, but I believe in God & Jesus. I think it's a natural plant & God put it here.

I hope all those crazy christians don't see this as a green light to start getting high around here. It's hard enough to get good cannabis here without even more buyers coming into the market!

Whilst I do think that cannabis id largely harmless I fail to see how the word 'herb' can apply just to cannabis.

It's hard not to feel that St John the Divine was under the influence of something.
