SEV Biblia, Chapter 14:16
y mojará su dedo derecho en el aceite que tiene en su mano izquierda, y esparcirá del aceite con su dedo siete veces delante del SEÑOR.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 16. And the priest shall dip his right finger , etc.] The finger of his right hand, the forefinger of it: in the oil that [is] in his left hand ; either that is in his own left hand, or in the left hand of a fellow priest: and shall sprinkle of the oil with his finger seven times before the Lord ; that is, over against the house of the holy of holies, as Jarchi, where Jehovah dwelt; but standing at the same time at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, which was eastward, and so he looked westward to the holy of holies; so says the Misnah f498 , on which one of the commentators observes, that he did not bring the oil into the temple to sprinkle it before the vail: but he stood in the court, and turned his face to the holy of holies, and so sprinkled upon the floor of the court: and the Jewish doctors are very express for it, according to the Misnah f500 , that for every sprinkling there was a dipping; that as often as he sprinkled, so often he must dip his finger in the oil, and not that he might dip his finger once, and of that sprinkle two or three times; for the finger must be dipped seven times: this may denote the thanksgiving of the leper for his cleansing, proceeding from the grace of God, and the Lord’s gracious acceptance of it.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 10-32 - The cleansed leper was to be presented to the Lord, with his offerings When God has restored us to enjoy public worship again, after sickness distance, or otherwise, we should testify our thanksgiving by ou diligent use of the liberty. And both we and our offerings must be presented before the Lord, by the Priest that made us clean, even ou Lord Jesus. Beside the usual rites of the trespass-offering, some of the blood, and some of the oil, was to be put upon him that was to be cleansed. Wherever the blood of Christ is applied for justification the oil of the Spirit is applied for sanctification; these two cannot be separated. We have here the gracious provision the law made for poor lepers. The poor are as welcome to God's altar as the rich. But thoug a meaner sacrifice was accepted from the poor, yet the same ceremon was used for the rich; their souls are as precious, and Christ and his gospel are the same to both. Even for the poor one lamb was necessary No sinner could be saved, had it not been for the Lamb that was slain and hath redeemed us to God with his blood.
