Exodus 30:34
Compare all
32 It shall not be poured on man’s flesh; nor shall you make any other like it, according to its composition. aIt is holy, and it shall be holy to you.  
33 aWhoever compounds any like it, or whoever puts any of it on an outsider, bshall be cut off from his people.’ ”  

The Incense

34 And the Lord said to Moses: a“Take sweet spices, stacte and onycha and galbanum, and pure frankincense with these sweet spices; there shall be equal amounts of each.  
35 You shall make of these an incense, a compound aaccording to the art of the perfumer, salted, pure, and holy.  
36 And you shall beat some of it very fine, and put some of it before the Testimony in the tabernacle of meeting awhere I will meet with you. bIt shall be most holy to you.  
37 But as for the incense which you shall make, ayou shall not make any for yourselves, according to its1 composition. It shall be to you holy for the Lord.  
38 aWhoever makes any like it, to smell it, he shall be cut off from his people.”

Exodus

EXODUS, a "going forth," derives its name from its being occupied principally with a relation of the departure of the Israelites from Egypt, and the incidents that immediately preceded as well as followed that memorable migration. Its authorship by Moses is distinctly asserted by himself (Exodus 24:4), as well as by our Lord (Mark 12:26; Luke 20:37). Besides, the thorough knowledge it exhibits of the institutions and usages of the ancient Egyptians and the minute geographical details of the journey to Sinai, establish in the clearest manner the authenticity of this book.
