This oil was considered sacred, set apart for holy purposes, and used to consecrate the tabernacle and its furnishings, as well as the priests. The concept of anointing with oil is significant throughout the Bible, symbolizing the Holy Spirit's presence and empowerment. In the New Testament, Jesus is referred to as the "Anointed One" (Messiah), indicating His divine appointment and mission.<p><b>a fragrant blend</b><br>The fragrance of the anointing oil was not only pleasing but also symbolic of the prayers and worship of the people rising to God. The blend's aroma would permeate the tabernacle, creating an atmosphere of holiness and reverence. This fragrance can be seen as a type of the sweet-smelling sacrifice of Christ, whose life and death were a pleasing aroma to God (<a href="/ephesians/5-2.htm">Ephesians 5:2</a>).<p><b>the work of a perfumer</b><br>The creation of the anointing oil required skill and precision, akin to the work of a perfumer. This indicates the importance of craftsmanship and attention to detail in the service of God. The perfumer's role highlights the value of using one's talents for divine purposes, reflecting the broader biblical principle that all work should be done as unto the Lord (<a href="/colossians/3-23.htm">Colossians 3:23</a>).<p><b>it will be a sacred anointing oil</b><br>The repetition of the term "sacred" emphasizes the oil's holiness and exclusive use for consecrating the tabernacle, its furnishings, and the priests. This sacredness underscores the separation between the holy and the common, a theme prevalent throughout the Old Testament. The anointing oil's sanctity points to the ultimate consecration found in Christ, who sanctifies believers through His Spirit, setting them apart for God's purposes (<a href="/1_peter/2-9.htm">1 Peter 2:9</a>).<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/m/moses.htm">Moses</a></b><br>The leader of the Israelites, who received the instructions from God on Mount Sinai regarding the construction of the Tabernacle and the preparation of the holy anointing oil.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/topical/t/tabernacle.htm">Tabernacle</a></b><br>The portable sanctuary where God dwelled among the Israelites.
