WHY TEREBINTH™
The Terebinth tree is known for its long life and deep roots. It is also associated with several significant events that took place in the Bible; notably, David defeated Goliath in the Terebinth Valley.
A lot of people like the story of David defeating Goliath because the underdog who scores an unlikely victory over seemingly insurmountable odds armed with only a sling. We like the story of David defeating Goliath because it is an example of David leveling the playing field using technology, skill, and being underestimated.
Eitan Hirsch, a ballistics expert with the Israeli Defense Forces, did a series of calculations showing a typical-sized stone hurled by an expert slinger from 114 feet has stopping power equivalent to a modern handgun. In retrospect, David brought a gun to a sword fight and Goliath didn’t appreciate just how much trouble he was in.
