What does it mean that Jesus' name is like ointment poured forth?

Answered in 1 source

It means that Jesus' name provides healing, comfort, and is a source of joy and fragrance to believers.

The phrase 'the name of Jesus is as ointment poured forth' signifies the beneficial and restorative qualities associated with His name. Just as ointment soothes wounds and brings healing, Jesus' name embodies comfort, forgiveness, and grace for the believer. This notion also conveys an enriching effect in the life of a Christian, inspiring joy and drawing them closer to Christ. As believers enjoy His grace, the name of Jesus becomes a fragrant offering that fills their hearts and lives.
