Upon consulting the Merriam-Webster Dictionary, ‘anointed’ is described as “to smear or rub with oil”. Anoint comes to us from the ancient Latin word unguere, which means “to smear.”

In the Greek New Testament, the term ‘Christ’ appears over 500 times. The book with the highest frequency of its usage is Romans, with 65 occurrences.
It’s important to note that “Christ” is not a given name, but rather an epithet or descriptive title. The word originates from Latin “Christus” and Greek “khristos,” meaning “the anointed.” This is derived from the verbal adjective “khriein,” which signifies “to rub” or “anoint.”

The English word “chrism” is derived from the Late Latin term “chrisma,” which, in turn, comes from the Greek word “khrisma” (χρῖσμα). The Greek term “khrisma” means “ointment” or “anointing.” It is derived from the Greek word “khriein” (χρίειν), which means “to rub” or “anoint”.

In the Greek world, anointing was associated with bathing and athletics. A specific class of statues called “apoxyomenos” depicted athletes being anointed. Athletes took great care of their bodies, applying pure olive oil to their skin in the dressing room of the gymnasion.
This oil emitted a fragrance considered highly masculine. After training, athletes would have oil, dust, and sweat clinging to their bodies. They would use a bronze or iron scraper (known as “xystron” in Greek and “strigilis” in Latin) to remove this grime. The scraping also had a massaging effect on their skin. Subsequently, in the dressing rooms of the gymnasion, the athletes would wash themselves at a simple basin. Following the bath, they would anoint themselves once again to prevent dehydration of the skin, occasionally using perfumed oil.



The term “Kristos” served as the calque of the Hebrew word Messiah “מָשִׁיחַ‎” (pronounced as “māshīaχ” or “meshiyach”), meaning “anointed.”
The root word of “meshiyach” is the verb “mashach,” which signifies “to anoint.”
In ancient Hebrew culture, it was customary to physically pour oil on the head of someone being appointed to a position of authority. In ancient times, the primary and earliest recipient of anointing was the king.
Anointing was so closely associated with the king during this period that the term “the Lord’s anointed” was used exclusively to refer to them, later anointing was also extended to high priests and priests.
To the ancient Israelite there was no oil or fat with more symbolic meaning than olive oil.

Within the Tanakh, several individuals are identified as “meshiyach.” The word is used 39 times. Various verses throughout the Scriptures shed light on the significance of “mashiyach” (anointed) in relation to priests, kings, prophets, and even non-Hebrew rulers such as Cyrus, the King of Persia, who was recognized as a mashiyach (Isaiah 45:1). Other examples include Samuel anointing Saul as king (1 Samuel 10:1), and David being anointed three times as king (1 Samuel 16:13; 2 Samuel 2:4; 5:3). Aaron, the high priest, received an anointing after his appointment (Leviticus 8:12), symbolizing his consecration.

Verses like Leviticus 4:3, 1 Samuel 24:6, and 1 Chronicles 16:22 provide further insight into the profound implications of anointing. Those anointed, whether priests, kings, or prophets, are held accountable, protected, and revered by others. These anointings represent approval and the setting apart of individuals for their sacred roles. The act of pouring oil over their heads symbolizes the bestowal of authority. Also, it serve as a sign of Libation — the pouring of oil by Jacob upon the stone of Beth-el, Genesis 28:10–22.

“During the Talmudic era, the term “Mashiach” or “מלך המשיח” in Hebrew, translated to “the anointed King.” It referred to the concept of a future human leader who would emerge from the lineage of King David. The Mashiach was believed to have the role of ruling over and unifying the people of Israel. It was believed that this leader would bring about the Messianic Age, a time of worldwide harmony and tranquility.”

Therefore, it becomes evident that in Greek, “Kristos” implies rubbing oil on the body, as practiced by athletes. In Hebrew, it signifies the act of anointing, particularly as part of the initiation into the service of HaShem. As a result, the Christian concept of Messiah or Christ bears no resemblance to the Greek “khristos” or Jewish concept of “mesiyach”.
