Fragrance, in its various forms, symbolizes the pleasing aroma of sacrifices and the beauty of holiness. It is used both literally and metaphorically throughout the Scriptures. Old Testament Usage In the Old Testament, fragrant offerings were a significant part of the sacrificial system. The book of Exodus details the use of incense in worship, which was to be made from specific spices and burned as a pleasing aroma to the Lord. <a href="/exodus/30-34.htm">Exodus 30:34-35</a> states, "Then the LORD said to Moses, 'Take fragrant spices—gum resin, onycha, and galbanum—and pure frankincense, all in equal measures, and make a fragrant blend of incense, the work of a perfumer, seasoned with salt, pure and holy.'" The burnt offerings, grain offerings, and peace offerings were also described as having a "pleasing aroma" to the Lord (<a href="/leviticus/1-9.htm">Leviticus 1:9, 2</a>:2, 3:5). This phrase indicates God's acceptance and satisfaction with the offerings when they were made with a sincere heart and in accordance with His commandments. The Song of Solomon frequently uses the imagery of fragrance to describe love and beauty. In <a href="/songs/1-3.htm">Song of Solomon 1:3</a> , the beloved's name is compared to "perfume poured out," suggesting the attractiveness and desirability of the beloved. New Testament Usage In the New Testament, the concept of fragrance is expanded to include the spiritual sacrifices of believers. The Apostle Paul uses the metaphor of fragrance to describe the life and ministry of Christians. In <a href="/2_corinthians/2-14.htm">2 Corinthians 2:14-15</a> , Paul writes, "But thanks be to God, who always leads us triumphantly as captives in Christ and through us spreads everywhere the fragrance of the knowledge of Him. For we are to God the sweet aroma of Christ among those who are being saved and those who are perishing." This passage highlights the idea that the lives of believers, when lived in obedience to Christ, become a pleasing aroma to God and a testimony to the world. The fragrance of Christ is spread through the witness and actions of His followers. Additionally, in <a href="/ephesians/5-2.htm">Ephesians 5:2</a> , Paul exhorts believers to "walk in love, just as Christ loved us and gave Himself up for us as a fragrant sacrificial offering to God." Here, Christ's sacrificial love is described as a fragrant offering, emphasizing the ultimate sacrifice of Jesus as pleasing to God and the model for Christian love and sacrifice. Symbolism and Spiritual Significance Fragrance in the Bible often symbolizes the presence and favor of God. It represents the beauty and purity of worship that is acceptable to Him. The use of fragrant incense and offerings in the tabernacle and temple worship underscores the importance of approaching God with reverence and holiness. Moreover, the metaphorical use of fragrance in the New Testament illustrates the transformative power of the Gospel. As believers embody the teachings of Christ, their lives emit a spiritual fragrance that draws others to the knowledge of God. In summary, the biblical concept of fragrance encompasses both the literal use of aromatic substances in worship and the metaphorical representation of a life pleasing to God. It serves as a reminder of the importance of purity, sacrifice, and the spread of the Gospel through the lives of believers.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>(a.)
