Exodus 25:6 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 25:6

Oil for the light
For the light of the lamps in the candlestick: this was oil olive, as the Targum of Jonathan, and so Jarchi, see ( Exodus 27:20 ) ,

spices for anointing oil;
for the anointing of Aaron and his sons, and the tabernacle and its vessels, such as pure myrrh, sweet cinnamon, sweet calamus, and cassia:

and for sweet incense;
as stacte, onycha, and galbanum; from whence they had this oil and these spices, it is not easy to say, unless they brought them out of Egypt with them; which is likely, since the deserts of Arabia could not furnish them with them.

Exodus 25:6 In-Context

4 Als ook hemelsblauw, en purper, en scharlaken, en fijn linnen, en geiten haar.
5 En roodgeverfde ramsvellen, en dassenvellen, en sittimhout;
6 Olie tot den luchter, specerijen ter zalfolie, en tot roking welriekende specerijen;
7 Sardonixstenen, en vervullende stenen tot den efod, en tot den borstlap.
8 En zij zullen Mij een heiligdom maken, dat Ik in het midden van hen wone.
