Scripture Oils

Oil H8081 (fat-olive oil)
Ex. 27:20 Olive oil (beaten) for light
Anointing:
Ex. 29:7 anointing oil (consecrated portion)
This part is used only for all things in the Sanctuary and the Ministers of G-d.
Ex. 30:23 Take thou also unto thee principal spices, of pure [a flowing, free run] myrrh [an Arabian gum from the bark of a tree, used in sacred oil and in perfume] five hundred shekels, and of sweet cinnamon [fragrant bark used as spice] half so much, even two hundred and fifty shekels, and of sweet calamus [aromatic reed] two hundred and fifty shekels,
v. 24 And of cassia [a spice] five hundred shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary, and of oil olive an hin [a unit of measure, about 5 quarts]:
v. 25 And thou shalt make it an oil of holy ointment, an ointment compound after the art of the apothecary [to mix, compound]: it shall be an holy anointing oil.
This shall be an holy anointing oil unto Me throughout your generations.
30:32 Upon man's flesh shall it not be poured, neither shall ye make any other like it, after the composition of it: it is holy, and it shall be holy unto you.
v. 33 Whosoever compoundeth any like it, or whosoever putteth any of it upon a stranger, shall even be cut off from his people.
Perfume: Only to use in the sanctuary for people to smell.
When you breathe oil molecules they are detected by the brain olfactory center via the nostrils, which stimulates the central part of the brain that manages your storage and filing systems for emotions. It does not respond to spoken, heard or written language, it only responds to smell. Essential oils can communicate to that portion of our brain’s limbic system and release repressed emotions that have hindered us since childhood. Stored trauma or painful emotions, just like stored physical toxins, can make us sick and cause pain, illness and suffering on all leaves.
30:34 And the G-d said unto Moses, Take unto thee sweet spices [a spice used in incense], stacte [an aromatic gum drop resin of a shrub], and onycha [an ingredient used in the holy incense], and galbanum [a kind of resin or gum]; these sweet spices with pure frankincense [a white resin burned as fragrant]: of each shall there be a like weight:
30:36 And thou shalt beat some of it very small, and put of it before the testimony in the tabernacle of the congregation, where I will meet with thee: it shall be unto you most holy.
v. 38 And as for the perfume which thou shalt make, ye shall not make to yourselves according to the composition thereof: it shall be unto thee holy for the G-d.
Whosoever shall make like unto that, to smell thereto, shall even be cut off from his people.
Log of oil [a liquid measure equal to about one half litre]
Lev. 14:15 And the priest shall take some of the log of oil, and pour it into the palm of his own left hand:
v. 16 And the priest shall dip his right finger in the oil that is in his left hand, and shall sprinkle of the oil with his finger seven times before G-d:
v. 17 And of the rest of the oil that is in his hand shall the priest put upon the tip of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot, upon the blood of the trespass offering:
v. 18 And the remnant of the oil that is in the priest's hand he shall pour upon the head of him that is to be cleansed: and the priest shall make an atonement for him before G-d.
v. 28 And the priest shall put of the oil that is in his hand upon the tip of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot, upon the place of the blood of the trespass offering:
Pot of oil [flask, small oil jug]
2 kg. 4:2 Thine handmaid hath not any thing in the house, save a pot of oil.
In the multiplication of the widow’s pot of oil we have another illustration of the work of the Spirit. It is a lesson of emptying. The poor widow had nothing in the house wherewith to discharge her debt, save a pot of oil.
We also owe a debt we cannot pay.
We are debtors to live after the Spirit,
We are debtors to love one another,
We are debtors to carry the Word both to the Jews and the Greeks, both to the wise and to the unwise.
Nothing of our carnal nature can benefit to discharge the debt.
The oil – the Holy Spirit – will alone avail. But as in faith we begin, at G-d’s bidding, to pour it out into the empty vessels around us, we shall find that His supply is an inexhaustible one, and that the only limit is the measure of our expectation.
Go and pay thy debt, and live off the rest.
The power of the Spirit is enough both for life and for service.
Much is said in the Scriptures about oil (202 times), to keep it full and ready in season and out of season. You never know when you have need of it.
Empty the golden oil out of yourselves, for the more you give the more you will get.
Baths of oil [bath, a unit of liquid measure, about 40 litres, equal to dry measure ephah]
2 Chron. 2:10 twenty thousand baths of oil.
Ezra 7:22 Unto an hundred talents of silver, and to an hundred measures of wheat, and to an hundred baths of wine, and to an hundred baths of oil, and salt without prescribing how much.
What is the ‘prophetic’ meaning of the Oil?
Oil is seen throughout the Scriptures. Oil is seen for purposes of anointing and for fuel for the Lights. It is used to cook with, baking, sacrifices and is used for anointing.
Oil in the Bible is the physical representation of a spiritual reality,
