30 “You are to anoint Aaron and his sons and[a] sanctify them so that they may minister as my priests. 31 And you are to tell the Israelites: ‘This is to be my sacred anointing oil throughout your generations. 32 It must not be applied[b] to people’s bodies, and you must not make any like it with the same recipe. It is holy, and it must be holy to you.

- Exodus 30:32 tn Without an expressed subject, the verb may be treated as a passive. Any common use, as in personal hygiene, would be a complete desecration.
