an Ephab] See Annot, on Exodus 16:16. no oyle] This is forbidden in the sinne-offering, if not onely for distinction from the meat-offering whereof see Leviticus 2:1. according to the will of the Law-maker; for signification, that oyle that serves for light to the eyes, and lightsomenesse in the lookes, was not so sutable for sorrowfull confession of sinne, a deed of darkenesse; and the sweet frankincense might be forbidden, to make the offerer more apprehensive of the unsavorie sent of sinne in the nostrils of the Almighty. Some thinke it might intimate, that neither by any grace in us, or any prayers proceeding from us, (which were signified by oyle and frankincense) but onely by Christ we are reconciled to God.
