Leviticus
Leviticus 8:10–12
10Next, Moses took the anointing oil and anointed the tabernacle and everything in it; and so he consecrated them. 11He sprinkled some of the oil on the altar seven times, anointing the altar and all its utensils, and the basin with its stand, to consecrate them.
12He also poured some of the anointing oil on Aaron’s head and anointed him to consecrate him.
