Leviticus 14:19

"The rest of the oil that is in the priest’s hand he shall put on the head of him who is to be cleansed, and the priest shall make atonement for him before the LORD."

Key Reflection

This verse symbolizes the complete consecration of the person being cleansed, with the remaining oil on the priest's hand anointing the head—a gesture that signifies spiritual renewal and divine forgiveness. The act of anointing thus represents both physical cleansing and the restoration of right standing before God.
