Hiba Cedarwood essential oil is thin, slightly yellow, and has a complex, smoky, wood scent slightly reminiscent of cedar. The low pinene content of Hiba lets its distinct strong cedarwood aroma shine through. Almost all cedarwood including this one is used for sacred buildings much like Cedar (wood) of Lebanon was used to build the Holy Temple in Jerusalem, Israel.
Ideal for building a home because the wood of the Hiba tree is resistant to rot and is also a natural insect repellent. Hiba wood is water-resistant and so is aptly used in the construction of baths wooden deep-soaking tubs, as well as in many traditional bathing accessories, such as oke buckets and benches. This is why the wood has to be ground down before distillation for essential oil.
King David used cedarwood in building his palace (2 Samuel 5:11; 7:2), and it was also used in building the Holy Temple (1 Kings 5:6; 2 Kings 19:23), which was almost completely paneled with cedar (1 Kings 6:6, 16, 18, 20, 36). Solomon used it in his Palace of the Forest of Lebanon, with cedar columns, beams, and roof (1 Kings 7:2). It was also used in the construction of the second Temple (Ezra 3:7).
The abundance of cedar was seen as a sign of prosperity (1 Kings 10:27; 2 Chronicles 1:15.) David and Solomon acquired their cedar from Hiram, king of Tyre, a city in Lebanon (1 Chronicles 14:1; 2 Chronicles 2:3, 8) where the best cedar was to be found.
The fact that God planted the cedars in Lebanon was a sign of His power and goodness (Psalm 29:5; 104:16). His ability to break or burn them shows His power to judgment (Zechariah 11:1; Isaiah 2:3; 14:8). Jeremiah warned the king of Judah that, although he rested in a house of cedar—figuratively calling his residence “Cedar of Lebanon”—he would not escape judgment (Jeremiah 22:14–15, 23).
