The 12 Oils In The Bible

Image
Anointing oil, mentioned 20 times in Scripture, was used in the Old Testament for pouring on the head of the high priest and his descendants and sprinkling the tabernacle and its furnishings to mark them as holy and set apart to the Lord ( Exodus 25:6 ; Leviticus 8:30 ; Numbers 4:16 ).

The recipe for anointing oil is found in  Exodus 30:23-24 ; it contained myrrh, cinnamon and other natural ingredients.

On Palm Sunday Christians celebrate the  triumphal  entry of Jesus Christ  into Jerusalem, the week before his  death  and  resurrection . For many Christian churches,  Palm Sunday , often referred to as "Passion Sunday," marks the beginning of  Holy Week , which concludes on Easter Sunday. The Bible reveals that when Jesus entered Jerusalem, the crowds greeted him by waving palm branches and covering his path with palm branches.

The biblical account of Palm Sunday can be found in Matthew 21:1-11; Mark 11:1-11; Luke 19:28-44; and John 12:12-19.
