Exodus 30:30 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 30:30

And thou shall anoint Aaron and his sons
Them alone, and not others, as Aben Ezra, who were typical of Christ anointed with the Spirit of God without measure, to his various offices of prophet, priest and King; and also of all the saints, who are anointed priests to God, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Christ:

and consecrate them, that they may minister unto me in the priest's
office;
by anointing them, and by other rites mentioned in the preceding chapter; whereby they were set apart for that office, and were qualified for it, and had authority to exercise it.

Exodus 30:30 In-Context

28 the altar for entirely burned offerings and all its equipment, and the washbasin with its stand.
29 Make them holy so that they may be perfectly holy. Whatever touches them will become holy.
30 Then anoint Aaron and his sons and make them holy to serve me as priests.
31 Say to the Israelites: This will be my holy anointing oil in every generation.
32 Don't allow anyone else to use this oil. Don't make another oil like it by using the same formula. This oil is holy, and you should regard it as holy.
