“And on the banks, on both sides of the river, there will grow all kinds of trees for food.

Whatever touches them will become holy. 30 You shall anoint Aaron and his sons, and consecrate them, that they may serve me as priests. 31 And you shall say to the people of Israel, ‘This shall be my holy anointing oil throughout your generations.” Exodus 30:22-31 ESV
