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 burnt offerings and all its accessories, and the basin with its stand.
29 In this way you will dedicate them for their holy purpose. Then they will be most holy, and anything that touches them will become holy.
30 Anoint Aaron and his sons as well. In this way you will set them apart for their holy duties of serving me as priests.
31 "Say to the Israelites, 'For generations to come, this will be my holy oil used only for anointing.
32 It must never be poured on the bodies of other people. Never make any perfumed oil using this formula. It is holy, and you must treat it as holy.
