Exodus 30:27 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 30:27

And the table, and all his vessels
The shewbread table, with all things appertaining to it, rings, staves, dishes, spoons, bowls all were anointed; which had respect to Christ, and the communion of his people with him, feeding on him, that food which endures for ever, whom God the Father has sealed and sanctified:

and the candlestick and his vessels;
an emblem of the church, and of the light of the word held forth in it, which being accompanied with the grace of the Spirit of God, is the savour of life unto life:

and the altar of incense;
on which the odours, the prayers of the saints, come up before God through the mediation of Christ.

Exodus 30:27 In-Context

25 Make these into a holy anointing oil, a perfumer's skillful blend.
26 "Use it to anoint the Tent of Meeting, the Chest of The Testimony,
27 the Table and all its utensils, the Lampstand and its utensils, the Altar of Incense,
28 the Altar of Whole-Burnt-Offerings and all its utensils, and the Washbasin and its base.
29 Consecrate them so they'll be soaked in holiness, so that anyone who so much as touches them will become holy.
