Exodus 30:32

30 ^aAnd you shall anoint Aaron and his sons, and consecrate them, that they may minister to Me as priests.

31 “And you shall speak to the children of Israel, saying: ‘This shall be a holy anointing oil to Me throughout your generations.

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.
