Oil:
"olive oil," is mentioned over 200 times in the Bible. Different kinds were known in Palestine. The "pure," RV (AV, "beaten"), mentioned in Exd 27:20; 29:40; Lev 24:2; Num 28:5 (now known as virgin oil), extracted by pressure, without heat, is called "golden" in Zec 4:12. There were also inferior kinds. In the NT the uses mentioned were
(a) for lamps, in which the "oil" is a symbol of the Holy Spirit, Mat 25:3, 4, 8;
(b) as a medicinal agent, for healing, Luk 10:34;
(c) for anointing at feasts, Luk 7:46;
(d) on festive occasions, Hbr 1:9, where the reference is probably to the consecration of kings;
(e) as an accompaniment of miraculous power, Mar 6:13, or of the prayer of faith, Jam 5:14. For its general use in commerce, see Luk 16:6; Rev 6:6; 18:13.
