1. olive oil — Olive oil as a commodity and liturgical substance, used for anointing the sick (Jas 5:14), as a trade good (Rev 6:6, 18:13), in the parable of the ten virgins (Matt 25:3-4, 8), and for anointing the head (Luke 7:46). All 11 occurrences denote the same physical substance in various grammatical cases (accusative, genitive, dative). Multilingual evidence is uniform: Spanish 'aceite/de aceite,' Hindi 'तेल/तेल–की,' Arabic 'زَيْتًا/زَيْتٍ,' Korean '기름으로/기름을,' Swahili 'mafuta/za-mafuta.' The genitive occurrence (S66887) is merely a partitive or possessive construction, not a distinct sense. 11×
