Henna in the Bible

Hey I found that Henna was even included in the Bible! I found it fascinating, because it shows how much it was involved in the ancient Middle Eastern life. One verse is taken from Song of Solomon 1:14:
"As a cluster of henna my dear one is to me"
and 4:13
"Your skin is a paradise of pomegranates, with the choicest fruits, henna plants along with spikenard plants."

Cool!
