Exodus 30:23-31

CLV⁽ⁱ⁾ ²³ As for you, take to yourself the principal aromatics, of free flowing myrrh five hundred shekels worth and of aromatic cinnamon half of it, two hundred fifty, and of aromatic reed two hundred fifty, ²⁴ and of cassia five hundred by the shekel of the holy place, and of olive oil a hin;" ²⁵ and you will make of it a holy anointing oil, a compounded ointment, the handiwork of a compounder. A holy anointing oil shall it be. ²⁶ With it you will anoint the tent of appointment and the coffer of the testimony, ²⁷ the table and all its furnishings, the lampstand and its furnishings and the altar of incense, ²⁸ the altar of ascent offering and all its furnishings, the laver and its post. ²⁹ You will hallow them so that they become a holy of holies. All that touches them shall be holy. ³⁰ Aaron and his sons shall you anoint and hallow them to serve as priests for Me. ³¹ And to the sons of Israel shall you speak, saying: A holy anointing oil shall this become to Me throughout your generations.

pure myrrh.Myrrh is a white gum, issuing from the trunk and larger branches of a thorny tree resembling the acacia, growing in Arabia, Egypt, and Abyssinia. Its taste is extremely bitter; but its smell, though strong, is agreeable; and it entered into the composition of the most costly ointments among the ancients. The epithet {deror,} rendered pure, properly denotes fluid, from the Arabic {darra,} to flow; by which is meant the finest and most excellent kind, called {stacte,} which issues of itself from the bark without incision.
cinnamon.{Kinnamon bosem,} odoriferous or spicy cinnamon, is the bark of the canella, a small tree of the size of a willow growing in the island of Ceylon.
sweet calamus.{Kenaih bosem,} {calamus aromaticus,} or odoriferous cane, is a reed growing in Egypt, Syria, and India, about two feet in height, bearing from the root a knotted stalk, quite round, containing in its cavity a soft white pith. It is said to scent the air while growing; and when cut down, dried, and powdered, makes an ingredient in the richest perfumes.
