Pouring Oil Over the Whole and Frankincense on a Part

"And he shall pour oil upon it" — upon the whole of it. "And he shall put frankincense upon it" — upon part of it. And what made you say this? Because a limitation following a limitation in the Torah serves only to restrict. Another explanation: "and he shall pour oil upon it" — upon the whole, because the oil is blended with it and is taken up with the handful; "and he shall put frankincense upon it" — upon part, because the frankincense is neither blended with it nor taken up in the handful. "And he shall pour oil upon it and put frankincense upon it" — I do not know how much. So I reason: it requires the taking of a handful and it requires frankincense; just as the handful is a full handful, so the frankincense is a full handful. Rabbi Judah says: if he reduced its frankincense, it is still valid. "And he shall pour oil upon it and put frankincense upon it and bring it," and so forth — this teaches that the pouring of oil and the blending are valid when performed by any person.
