Anointing with oil
Do we ever anoint with oil a person who is sick or use anointing with oil at any other time? If so what kind of oil? I am thinking of verses like James 5:13-15, Mark 6:13.
We have no command from the Lord to anoint individuals today with oil. In biblical accounts, anointing people with oil was done for ceremonial or sacred purposes (anointing prophets, priests and kings into offices), and for soothing or medicinal purposes (Ecclesiastes 9:8; Luke 10:34).
The original Greek of the New Testament has two words that mean “anoint.” One described the ceremonial application, another spoke of a medicinal usage. The passages that you cited contain the verbs that speak of a medicinal usage.
