Exodus 30:18-28
18 “Make a bronze basin(A) for washing and a bronze stand for it. Set it between the tent of meeting and the altar, and put water in it.
19 Aaron and his sons must wash their hands and feet from the basin.
20 Whenever they enter the tent of meeting or approach the altar to minister by burning up an offering to the Lord, they must wash with water so that they will not die.
21 They must wash their hands and feet so that they will not die; this is to be a permanent statute(B) for them, for Aaron and his descendants throughout their generations.”
The Anointing Oil
22 The Lord spoke to Moses:
23 “Take for yourself the finest spices:(C) 12½ pounds(a) of liquid myrrh, half as much (6¼ pounds(b)) of fragrant cinnamon, 6¼ pounds(c) of fragrant cane,
24 12½ pounds(d) of cassia (by the sanctuary shekel), and one gallon(e) of olive oil.(D)
25 Prepare from these a holy anointing oil, a scented blend, the work of a perfumer; it will be holy anointing oil.(E)
