Jesus Probably Loved Pot, So He’d Love Dockside’s Weed Advent Calendars
There is a pretty serious historical case to be made that Jesus was way down with the ganja. And no, it does not rest on his flowing locks, loose garments, and raggedy goatee. It rests on the fact that “messiah” roughly translates to “anointed one,” and that the biblical recipe for holy anointing oil calls for nine pounds of “kaneh-bosm” to be infused into olive oil. Kaneh-bosm, according to Sex, Drugs, Violence and the Bible author Chris Bennett, was mistranslated as a common marsh plant in the first Greek translation of the Bible, but is actually cannabis. So what better way to celebrate Jesus’s birth than with a shitload of weed?
Dockside’s advent calendars are filled with goodies from Emerald Peaks, Ruby’s Sweets, Lazy Bee, Coastal Cannabis, and more—and not just flowers and edibles, either. The 12 Days of Kushmas calendar will run you $160, while the 25-day ADVENTure calendar costs $300. Happy birthday, Jesus!
