The Anointing Oil

²² Moreover, the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, ²³ “Take also for yourself the finest of spices: of liquid myrrh ^[a]five hundred shekels, and of fragrant cinnamon half as much, 250, and of fragrant cane 250, ²⁴ and of cassia 500, according to the shekel of the sanctuary, and of olive oil a ^[b]hin. ²⁵ You shall make ^[c]from these a holy anointing oil, a fragrant mixture of ointments, the work of a perfumer; it shall be ^(A)a holy anointing oil. ²⁶ And ^(B)you shall anoint the tent of meeting with it, and the ark of the testimony, ²⁷ and the table and all its utensils, and the lampstand and its utensils, and the altar of incense, ²⁸ and the altar of burnt offering and all its utensils, and the basin and its stand. ²⁹ You shall also consecrate them, so that they may be most holy; whatever touches them shall be holy. ³⁰ And ^(C)you shall anoint Aaron and his sons, and consecrate them, so that they may serve as priests to Me. ³¹ Furthermore, you shall speak to the sons of Israel, saying, ‘This shall be a holy anointing oil to Me throughout your generations. ³² It shall not be poured on ^[d]anyone’s body, nor shall you make any like it in ^[e]the same proportions; ^(D)it is holy, and it shall be holy to you. ^33 (E)Whoever mixes any like it or whoever puts any of it on a ^[f]layman ^[g](F)shall be cut off from his people.’”
