Hemp is mentioned a few times in the bible, especially in the old testament. It is mentioned as being used for incense for celebrations and a way to be intoxicated. There are arguments for hemp and marijuana because it is a plant made by God, so there should be no issues in consuming it.
Hemp reeds are also mentioned as being used as a material for rugs and other items used in homes.

Hemp is mentioned in the bible, apparently in Genesis 1:29. It is said that Genesis 1:29 is implying that marijuana is edible because, like all plants, it was created by God. There is also mention in the Old Testament of hemp, in Exodus 30:8 and Exodus 30:22. Also, in the Old Testament, Song of Songs 4:8. There are many more references to hemp and cannabis in the bible.

We can see hemp-related topics and original Hebrew testament, the usage of it as the intoxicant manner, and incense for religious ceremonies. Some people define the words of genesis 1:29 to refer to weed, which is genetically suitable and certified for humans since God formed this earth and all plants.

Genesis 1:29 And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you, it shall be for meat.
The original Hebrew supposedly mentioned hemp by name, so some people interpret these words to mean it was created for us by God.

I was surprised by this question, so I went ahead and looked it up:
Isaiah 43:24 711 BCE
“You have not bought any fragrant calamus [cannabis] for me, or lavished on me the fat of your sacrifices. But you have burdened me with your sins and wearied me with your offenses.”
