[edit] grimm's law

Why does it say it predates Grimm's Law? Doesn't c->h follow Grimm's Law?

It must mean that it was a loan to Germanic before the phenomenon described by Grimm.--Ioscius ^(talk) 19:10, 13 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] mechoulam

Don't know what cannabis Mechoulam is smoking, but there is no Ezekiel 5:22 . . . --Ioscius ^(talk) 02:46, 14 August 2007 (UTC)

The reference to "pannag" is found in Ezekiel 27:17. I have changed the article to reflect this. Alaue (talk) 22:09, 28 January 2008 (UTC)Alaue

[edit] Cannabis in Hebrew

Hello everyone.

In the article it says that in Hebrew Cannabis is pronounced "Cannabos". Well, I live in Israel, and I must say it is wrong. The word was never used in any of the holy documents (Old Testament, Talmud, etc.) and isn't at all used daily. People just say Cannabis. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ore4444 (talk • contribs) 15:14, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
