Commentaries:
Adam Clarke
I have perfumed any bed with Myrrh - mor , "aloes," ahalim , and "cinnamon," kinnamon . We have taken our names from the original words; but probably the ahalim may not mean aloes, which is no perfume; but sandal wood, which is very much used in the East. She had used every means to excite the passions she wished to bring into action.
