• Frankincense- It was a perfume utilised in Jewish worship and its significance as a gift was worship of Jesus.
• Gold- It was associated with the kings, following which Jesus was believed by the people to be the king of all kings.
• Myrrh-It was a perfume which dead bodies were used to be sprayed on to avoid the odour and make them smell good. It basically showed that Jesus would suffer and die.
