Was Moses Anointed with oil?
Yes, Moses was anointed with oil according to the Bible. In the Book of Exodus, God instructs Moses to anoint Aaron and his sons as priests, and to anoint the Tabernacle, the Ark of the Covenant, and other objects and spaces that were considered holy.
The anointing of Aaron and his sons as priests is described in the following passage from the Book of Exodus: "Take the anointing oil and anoint Aaron and his sons and consecrate them so they may serve me as priests. Say to the Israelites, 'This is to be my sacred anointing oil for the generations to come'" (Exodus 30:30-31).
The anointing of the Tabernacle and other holy objects is described in the following passage: "Then bring near to you Aaron your brother, and his sons with him, from among the Israelites, to serve me as priests—Aaron and Aaron's sons, Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar. Make sacred garments for your brother Aaron to give him dignity and honor. Tell all the skilled workers to whom I have given wisdom in such matters that they are to make garments for Aaron, for his consecration, so he may serve me as priest" (Exodus 28:1-3).
The anointing of Moses and Aaron as leaders and priests was a sign of God's favor and consecration, and it was seen as a way of setting them apart for a special purpose.
