Hello,

There seem to exist two greek words meaning "oil". 
MURON (an expensive perfume oil) and ELAION (olive-oil). Maybe this is a bit off-list, but in Luke 10,34 it seems that the ELAION is used as a medicine. Is that correct? Has ELAION been used for medical reasons?
And what kind of oil was MURON?

thanks in advance,
