Biblical seed regrown

A mystery seed dating from 993 C.E.-1202 C.E. that was uncovered four decades ago by archaeologists in a cave in the Judean Desert has been revived. It is believed to be the biblical healing balm  tsori (Genesis 37:25 & 43:11) as it contains high levels of medicinal compounds e.g., the antioxidant squalene.
