In Exodus 29:8, the anointing oil is used to consecrate Aaron and his sons as priests before the Lord. This act symbolizes their set-apartness and dedication to serving God in their priestly duties. The anointing oil represents the empowering and equipping of the Holy Spirit for the sacred task of interceding on behalf of the people. Through this anointing, Aaron and his sons are marked as chosen vessels for God's service, reflecting the importance of divine consecration in fulfilling their roles as mediators between God and the Israelites.
