Libanos denotes an item presented among gifts and listed among trade goods in Scripture.
The attested uses present libanos as a material item: offered among treasures in Matthew 2:11 and included in a list of goods in Revelation 18:13.

Both occurrences use the accusative singular form λίβανον within item lists. In Matthew 2:11 the APB renders it among the gifts opened from treasures; in Revelation 18:13 the APB renders it within an extended list of goods.
In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB includes “frankincense” in both the gift list of Matthew 2:11 and the goods list of Revelation 18:13. This confirms the verse-level presentation rather than isolating the term by English wording alone.
