Ointment preparation and meat cooking
Ointment preparation and meat cooking At the top left, leaves are “wrung out” in order to extract their fragrance and mix it with the oil, which then takes on the scent of the fragrance, for the production of ointment. At the right side, an ox is bound, slaughtered, and butchered; the meat is then cooked in a large pot. Exod 30:25 ; 1 Sam 2:13–15 ; 8:13 ; Neh 3:8 ; Job 41:31
