Spiritual Moroccan olive oil

The history of olive oil

The olive oil comes from the town of Kacem. The land already belonged to my ancestors. It is the best soil for olive oil. After my grandparents died, my father continued it and my father bought out all his brothers. Later, my father also bought additional land to increase production. He did it for years, but only sold it domestically. Now it is finally available in the Netherlands and Suriname as well.

The oil is very highly condensed and you can use it for many things. For your skin, hair, resistance, sports, illnesses, negativities and of course you can also use it for cooking. Should you use it for cooking, I recommend putting some on top of your food. You can also put it on bread as a substitute for butter. For massages, olive oil is also very good.

Holy olive oil in the church

Olive oil is holy. I would not have dared to think that last week, but there is a grain of truth in it. Because after reading a homily by the previous pope (1-4-2010), both in Italian and Dutch, I am sure that olive oil has a very important place in the worship of the Catholic Church. I don't think Benedict had raised white smoke for the sanctity of olive oil in general, but there is a link between olive oil and faith.

Already in the Old Testament the olive tree is written about. In the beginning, well, a little later, the dove returns to Noah after the Flood with a twig, an olive branch. This sprig, like the dove, symbolises peace and even olive oil is assigned this symbolism.

God's power in olive oil

Olive oil plays an important role in the liturgy of the Catholic Church. And miraculously, it refers explicitly to the Mediterranean region, to the culture around the Mediterranean. Olive oil comes from this concrete historical domain where Christianity originated. So God also chose Italy as a very special place on earth to use this special, earthly product there to speak to humanity.

The oil of the olive tree has a wide-ranging symbolic meaning. It is nourishment, it is medicine, it gives beauty, it prepares for battle and gives strength. Kings and priests are anointed with oil. This symbolises dignity and the responsibility they have to bear. It is also a direct reference to the strength that comes from God. It is extraordinary to see how faith is so naturally intertwined with everyday life and how olive oil, in particular, is used for highlights.

The consecrated olive oil

Actually, olive oil accompanies all of life from birth (baptism) to death (anointing of the sick) and is always under the sign of giving strength through the mercy of God. The pope's words reflect the particularity. Benedict XVI: "Nel frutto dell'ulivo, nell'olio consacrato, ci tocca la bontà del Creatore, l'amore del Redentore.". "Through the fruit of the olive tree, in the consecrated oil, touches us the goodness of the Creator, the love of the Redeemer."

At dawn on Maundy Thursday, the olive oil is consecrated and blessed for the whole year, making it holy. After that, the oil can be used for the Sacraments. This oil is then so special that should there be any leftover, it cannot be thrown away, only burnt. This holy oil is not for eating, yet the better olive oil is used. After all, this is oil reserved for God's purposes. But I am almost certain that by the end of the year, the holy oil would be absolutely unfit for ordinary consumption!

Vulnerable olive oil

Olive oil in its purest form is very fragile and needs proper care. Air, light and large temperature variations are great enemies of olive oil and can turn even the finest olive oil into an unpalatable commodity. You could even say: the finer the oil, the more fragile.

Olive oil that should not be used for consumption is called "lampante" after its former use as fuel for oil lamps (lampade). Since we do not make lampante, but olive oil for eating, it is currently important to keep a close eye on the heat level in our cellar. To preserve olive oil optimally, a stable environment with a temperature of around 15°C is needed.

We enter the fray

The symbolism of oil also includes, as mentioned, that it makes one strong for battle.
