Cannabidiol, or CBD , has become a popular natural remedy for various health conditions. It is one of the many cannabinoids found in the cannabis plant, but unlike tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) , it doesn’t produce a psychoactive effect or make you feel “high.” Instead, it has anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and anxiolytic properties that may alleviate pain, reduce anxiety, and improve sleep quality, among other benefits.

Biblical scholars have written about the role of cannabis as a sacrament in the ancient Near East and Middle East. Archeological evidence confirms the use of the plant in fumigation rituals in ancient Israel. Scriptural references indicate that cannabis was a key ingredient in the holy anointing oil employed in religious rites. But Yahweh, the Almighty Jealous God, frowned upon the idolatrous use of cannabis, the polytheistic drug of choice.

The U.S. cannabis industry is still in its infancy, even though states began engaging with legalization in one form or another in the late 1990s. Today, many opportunities exist for individuals and businesses that want to engage in the industry. Some want to directly own licensed businesses, while others prefer to keep the industry at an arm’s length and merely profit from it.
