Leviticus 14:16 Summary
[This verse is talking about a special ritual where a priest would sprinkle oil to help someone become clean before God, which is similar to how we are made clean through faith in Jesus Christ, as seen in Acts 15:9. The priest's action of dipping his finger into the oil and sprinkling it seven times is a symbol of the completeness of God's cleansing and forgiveness. By using oil and blood, the priest is reminding us that God wants us to be completely clean and forgiven, as seen in 1 John 1:7-9, where it says that the blood of Jesus cleanses us from all sin.]
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the significance of the priest dipping his right forefinger into the oil in his left palm?
This action symbolizes the priest's role as a mediator between God and the person being cleansed, as seen in Leviticus 14:16, and is reminiscent of the anointing of Aaron in Leviticus 8:12, where oil is used to signify consecration and purification.
Why did the priest sprinkle the oil seven times before the Lord?
The number seven in the Bible often represents completeness or perfection, as seen in Genesis 2:2-3, where God rested on the seventh day, and in this context, it may signify the completeness of the cleansing ritual, as the priest is seeking to make the person fully clean before God.
What is the relationship between the oil and the blood of the guilt offering in this ritual?
The oil and the blood are both used to cleanse and atone for the person, with the blood symbolizing the payment for sin, as seen in Leviticus 17:11, and the oil representing purification and consecration, as seen in Exodus 30:22-33, highlighting the dual aspects of God's forgiveness and cleansing.
How does this ritual point to Jesus Christ?
The ritual of cleansing, with its emphasis on blood, oil, and priestly mediation, foreshadows the ultimate cleansing and atonement provided by Jesus Christ, as seen in Hebrews 7:26-27, where Jesus is described as the perfect high priest who offers himself as a sacrifice for our sins.
Reflection Questions
- What does it mean for me to be 'clean' before God, and how can I experience this kind of cleansing in my own life?
- How does the use of oil in this ritual relate to the anointing of the Holy Spirit in my life, as described in 1 John 2:20 and 27?
- What are the ways in which I can 'sprinkle' the blessings and cleansing of God into the lives of those around me, as the priest sprinkled the oil before the Lord?
- In what ways do I need to apply the dual aspects of God's forgiveness and cleansing, represented by the blood and oil, to my own life and relationships?
Gill's Exposition on Leviticus 14:16

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Leviticus 14:16
And on the eighth day he shall take two he lambs without blemish, and one ewe lamb of the first year without blemish, and three tenth deals of fine flour for a meat offering, mingled with oil, and one log of oil.
Matthew Poole's Commentary on Leviticus 14:16
i.e. Before the second veil which covered the holy of holies, where God is oft said to dwell, and to be present in a peculiar manner.
Trapp's Commentary on Leviticus 14:16
Leviticus 14:16 And the priest shall dip his right finger in the oil that [is] in his left hand, and shall sprinkle of the oil with his finger seven times before the LORD:Ver. 16. Seven times.] This might note the perfection of the joys God hath for his, and our imperfection in believing it, in that it was so many times sprinkled.
Ellicott's Commentary on Leviticus 14:16
(16) And the priest shall dip.—The priest did not take the oil into the sanctuary, but, holding it in the hollow of his hand, stood in the court, whilst the officiating priest, turning his face to the Holy of Holies, dipped his right finger in the oil, and sprinkled it seven times upon the floor of the court, which was understood to mean “before the Lord,” dipping his finger every time he sprinkled the oil.
Barnes' Notes on Leviticus 14:16
The sevenfold sprinkling of the oil before the sanctuary, in addition to the waving of it, seems to have been intended to consecrate it to represent the spiritual gift consequent upon the covenant,
Whedon's Commentary on Leviticus 14:16
16. Sprinkle of the oil — Since it is ordinary oil, and not “the holy anointing” oil, (Exodus 30:23-25,) the sevenfold sprinkling is its perfect consecration unto Jehovah.
