Then take the anointing oil
The anointing oil was a sacred mixture used for consecrating priests, kings, and sacred objects. It was composed of specific ingredients as detailed inExodus 30:22-25, including myrrh, cinnamon, calamus, cassia, and olive oil. This oil symbolized the Holy Spirit's presence and empowerment, setting apart individuals and items for God's service. The use of anointing oil in the Old Testament foreshadows the anointing of Jesus Christ, the Messiah, whose title means "Anointed One."

and anoint him
Anointing was a significant ritual in ancient Israel, signifying the setting apart of a person for a holy purpose. In this context, it refers to the consecration of Aaron and his sons as priests. This act of anointing was a public declaration of their divine appointment and authority to serve in the tabernacle. The anointing of priests is a type of Christ, who is our High Priest, anointed by God to intercede on behalf of humanity (Hebrews 4:14-16).

by pouring it on his head
The act of pouring oil on the head was a common practice in ancient Near Eastern cultures, symbolizing the outpouring of God's Spirit and blessing. This method of anointing was not just a symbolic gesture but a tangible expression of God's favor and empowerment. InPsalm 133:2, the anointing oil running down Aaron's beard is a metaphor for unity and blessing. This imagery is fulfilled in the New Testament with the outpouring of the Holy Spirit on believers, as seen inActs 2, marking them as God's chosen people.

What does 'You anoint my head with oil' mean?

What does "You anoint my head with oil" mean?

In Psalm 133:2, does the image of oil running down Aaron’s beard have literal historic authenticity or is it purely symbolic?

What is the anointing mentioned in 1 John 2:20, 27?(7)The anointing oil--i.e., the oil mentioned inExodus 25:6, and recently glanced at inExodus 28:41. On its composition seeExodus 30:23-25.

Pour it upon his head.--As the ablution typified cleansing from sin, so the anointing was emblematic of the outpouring of Divine grace upon the person anointed. Thepouringof the oil on Aaron's head was perhaps to indicate the freeness and abundance with which God gives His grace to His servants. (Comp.Psalm 133:2.)

Coats--i.e., tunics. (See Note 1 onExodus 28:40.) . . .

Verse 7. -The Chrism or Anointing.Verse 7. -The anointing oil had been mentioned previously inExodus 25:6, when "spices" had been required from the congregation to form a portion of it. Its composition is given inExodus 30:23-25; a passage from which we gather that it was exceedingly rich and costly.And pour it upon hishead. ComparePsalm 133:2. While ablution is a rite common to many religions, the religious use of unction is peculiar to the Mosaic and the Christian. In the Mosaic it was applied to initiate into their office the prophet, the priest, and the king. In Christianity it was originally a rite by which sick persons were miraculously cured (James 5:14, 15), from which use it was afterwards extended by ecclesiastical authority to other important ceremonies. The typical meaning under Christianity is clear; the oil represents the Holy Spirit, and the anointing the outpouring of that Spirit on those who are the objects of it. Christ himself obtained his title of Christ (or Messiah), because he was "anointed with the Holy Ghost and with power" (Acts 10:38). Under Mosaism this idea was, at most, latent. Unction was understood to mark

(1) Dignity, because the olive was the first of trees (Judges 9:9); and

(2) Continuance, because oil preserves things for a long time from corruption. Unction with the holy oil of the sanctuary no doubt further signified consecration to God's service. It was applied not only to the priests, but to the tabernacle, the ark, the table of shew-bread with its vessels, the seven branched candlestick, the altar of incense, the altar of burnt offering, and the laver, all of which thereupon became "most holy" (Exodus 30:26-29).
