Priestly anointing

Priestly anointing refers to a special religious ceremony in which a person is consecrated or set apart for service as a priest. It involves the anointing with holy oil, symbolizing God's empowerment, blessing, and the authority to carry out sacred duties. This act signifies God's selection and equipping of an individual to serve in spiritual leadership, such as offering sacrifices, leading worship, or guiding the community. It emphasizes both divine calling and empowerment, marking the transition from everyday life to a dedicated spiritual role within the faith community.
