Frankincense and myrrh are aromatic tree resins that have been used for thousands of years in religious rituals, traditional medicine, and perfumes. They come from the sap of trees in the Boswellia and Commiphora genuses, respectively, and are often burned as incense or used in essential oils for their calming and therapeutic properties.

Three gifts are explicitly identified in Matthew: gold, frankincense, and myrrh. Many different theories of the meaning and symbolism of the gifts have been advanced; while gold is fairly obviously explained, frankincense, and particularly myrrh, are much more obscure. They generally break down into two groups: * That they are all ordinary gifts for a king - myrrh being commonly used as an anointing oil, frankincense as a perfume, and gold as a valuable. * That they are prophetic - gold as a symbol of kingship on earth, frankincense (an incense) as a symbol of priestship, and myrrh (an embalming oil) as a symbol of death. Sometimes this is described more generally as gold symbolizing virtue, frankincense symbolizing prayer, and myrrh symbolizing suffering.
