Thematic Bible: General references to application of oil to the body


Thematic Bible



Wash yourself therefore, and anoint yourself and put on your best clothes, and go down to the threshing floor; but do not make yourself known to the man until he has finished eating and drinking.

But You have exalted my horn like that of the wild ox;
I have been anointed with fresh oil.

Let your clothes be white all the time, and let not oil be lacking on your head.

“You have journeyed to the king with oil
And increased your perfumes;
You have sent your envoys a great distance
And made them go down to Sheol.

Who drink wine from sacrificial bowls
While they anoint themselves with the finest of oils,
Yet they have not grieved over the ruin of Joseph.
