spices

Spices for the anointing oil are accepted with oil for the light and fragrant incense as a freewill contribution for the Dwelling. The finest spices — fresh myrrh, fragrant cinnamon, scented reed and cassia — are blended with a hin of olive oil into the holy anointing oil; sweet spices with frankincense make the reserved incense.
