Some of the sons of the priests
This phrase indicates a specific group within the Levitical priesthood, highlighting the hereditary nature of the priestly duties. The Hebrew word for "sons" (בְּנֵי, b'nei) often signifies descendants or members of a particular group, emphasizing the familial and covenantal aspects of the priesthood. The priests were descendants of Aaron, and their roles were divinely ordained, as seen in Exodus 28:1. This lineage underscores the continuity and faithfulness of God's promises to Israel, as well as the importance of maintaining purity and holiness in service to the Lord.

mixed the spices
The act of mixing spices was a sacred duty, as these spices were used in the preparation of incense for the temple, as described in Exodus 30:34-38. The Hebrew word for "mixed" (מְרַקְּחִים, m'raqq'chim) implies a careful and skilled process, reflecting the precision and reverence required in worship. The spices themselves were a blend of specific ingredients, symbolizing the prayers of the people ascending to God (Psalm 141:2). This task entrusted to the priests' sons highlights the importance of worship that is both orderly and heartfelt, reminding believers of the need for sincerity and devotion in their spiritual lives. The preparation of these spices was not merely a ritualistic task but a profound act of service, symbolizing the sweet aroma of a life dedicated to God.

(30) A parenthetic remark. The Levites had charge of the stores of spicery, but only the priests might lawfully prepare the holy ointment and oil wherewith the sacred tent, the ark, the table, &c, were anointed (Exodus 30:23-29).
