Particularly relevant since myrrh was used as a burial spice.

Maybe it was the myrrh that resurrected Jesus. I'm taking a bag of myrrh to the cemetery this afternoon and see what havoc I can wreak.

Myrrh at the time was an anointing oil used during burial rights/ preparation, so no.

Jesus, Lazarus, and I can’t think of anyone else who died at the time, but those two came back, so maybe?
