King James Version
The listed verse explanations of the individual persons have nothing to do with the explanations of the other persons. This also applies to the Bible translations.
Exodus 30:1 And thou shalt make an altar to burn incense upon: [of] shittim wood shalt thou make it.
Here, the Lord clearly shows us that the incense itself was considered a sacrifice and was offered on the so-called altar of incense.
The Lord gave great importance to the altar of incense. He commanded that it be covered with gold everywhere, with golden horns, two pairs of gold rings, two poles of gold-covered acacia wood, and this altar should be placed before the curtain that is before the ark so that He might appear there to Moses [Exod 30:3-6].
The altar of incense represented the Son of God in his human nature, and the incense burned thereon typified his pleading for his people. The continual intercession of Christ was represented by the daily burning of incense thereon, morning and evening. Once every year the blood of the atonement was to be applied to it, denoting that the intercession of Christ has all its virtue from his sufferings on earth, and that we need no other sacrifice or intercessor but Christ alone.

In the third book there is also a discussion of how the high priest begot sons, since he had the obligation to enter the Holy of Holies twice a day where the altar of incense was, to offer incense morning and evening. Into [this], as the law states, he could not enter while unclean, and the law says that a man is even made unclean as a result of conjugal coition, and indeed it orders him to be washed with water, but it states also that he, although washed, “is unclean until evening.” Hence I said, “It follows logically that he either be continent or that, on some days, the offering of incense be interrupted.” I did not realize that this is not a logical consequence. For what is written, “he will be unclean until evening,” can be understood to mean that he was no longer unclean during the evening itself but up to the evening, so that, cleansed, he could offer incense during the evening even though, after morning offering of incense, he had had conjugal relations with his wife for the procreation of children.

Exodus 30:11 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
The ransom of souls.
The tribute was half a shekel, about fifteen pence of our money. The rich were not to give more, nor the poor less; the souls of the rich and poor are alike precious, and God is no respecter of persons, [Acts 10:34]; [Job 34:19]. In other offerings men were to give according to their worldly ability; but this, which was the ransom of the soul, must be alike for all. The souls of all are of equal value, equally in danger, and all equally need a ransom. The money raised was to be used in the service of the tabernacle. Those who have the benefit, must not grudge the necessary charges of God’s public worship. Money cannot make atonement for the soul, but it may be used for the honor of Him who has made the atonement, and for the maintenance of the gospel by which the atonement is applied.

Exodus 30:14 Every one that passeth among them that are numbered, from twenty years old and above, shall give an offering unto the LORD.
The ransom of souls.
The tribute was half a shekel, about fifteen pence of our money. The rich were not to give more, nor the poor less; the souls of the rich and poor are alike precious, and God is no respecter of persons, [Acts 10:34]; [Job 34:19]. In other offerings men were to give according to their worldly ability; but this, which was the ransom of the soul, must be alike for all. The souls of all are of equal value, equally in danger, and all equally need a ransom. The money raised was to be used in the service of the tabernacle. Those who have the benefit, must not grudge the necessary charges of God’s public worship. Money cannot make atonement for the soul, but it may be used for the honor of Him who has made the atonement, and for the maintenance of the gospel by which the atonement is applied.

11And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,12When thou takest the sum of the children of Israel after their number, then shall they give every man a ransom for his soul unto the LORD, when thou numberest them; that there be no plague among them, when [thou] numberest them.13This they shall give, every one that passeth among them that are numbered, half a shekel after the shekel of the sanctuary: (a shekel [is] twenty gerahs:) an half shekel [shall be] the offering of the LORD.14Every one that passeth among them that are numbered, from twenty years old and above, shall give an offering unto the LORD.15The rich shall not give more, and the poor shall not give less than half a shekel, when [they] give an offering unto the LORD, to make an atonement for your souls.16And thou shalt take the atonement money of the children of Israel, and shalt appoint it for the service of the tabernacle of the congregation; that it may be a memorial unto the children of Israel before the LORD, to make an atonement for your souls.

Exodus 30:17 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
The brazen laver.
A large vessel of brass, holding water, was to be set near the door of the tabernacle. Aaron and his sons must wash their hands and feet at this laver, every time they went in to minister. This was to teach them purity in all their services, and to dread the pollution of sin. They must not only wash and be made clean, when first made priests, but must wash and be kept clean, whenever they went to minister. It teaches us daily to attend upon God, daily to renew our repentance for sin, and our looking to the blood of Christ for remission; for in many things we daily offend.

Exodus 30:22 Moreover the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
The holy anointing oil, The perfume.
Directions are here given for making the holy anointing oil, and the incense to be used in the service of the tabernacle. To show the excellencies of holiness, there was this spiced oil in the tabernacle, which was grateful to the sight and to the smell. Christ’s name is as ointment poured forth, [Song 1:3], and the good name of Christians is like precious ointment, [Eccl 7:1]. The incense burned upon the golden altar was prepared of sweet spices. When it was used, it was to be beaten very small; thus it pleased the Lord to bruise the Redeemer, when he offered himself for a sacrifice of a sweet-smelling savor. The like should not be made for any common use. Thus God would keep in the people’s minds reverence for his own services, and teach us not to profane or abuse any thing whereby God makes himself known. It is a great affront to God to jest with sacred things, and to make sport with his word and ordinances. It is most dangerous and fatal to use professions of the gospel of Christ to forward worldly interests.

22Moreover the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,23Take thou also unto thee principal spices, of pure myrrh five hundred [shekels], and of sweet cinnamon half so much, [even] two hundred and fifty [shekels], and of sweet calamus two hundred and fifty [shekels],24And of cassia five hundred [shekels], after the shekel of the sanctuary, and of oil olive an hin:25And thou shalt make it an oil of holy ointment, an ointment compound after the art of the apothecary: it shall be an holy anointing oil.26And thou shalt anoint the tabernacle of the congregation therewith, and the ark of the testimony,27And the table and all his vessels, and the candlestick and his vessels, and the altar of incense,28And the altar of burnt offering with all his vessels, and the laver and his foot.29And thou shalt sanctify them, that they may be most holy: whatsoever toucheth them shall be holy.30And thou shalt anoint Aaron and his sons, and consecrate them, that [they] may minister unto me in the priest's office.31And thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel, saying, This shall be an holy anointing oil unto me throughout your generations.32Upon man's flesh shall it not be poured, neither shall ye make [any other] like it, after the composition of it: it [is] holy, [and] it shall be holy unto you.33Whosoever compoundeth [any] like it, or whosoever putteth [any] of it upon a stranger, shall even be cut off from his people.34And the LORD said unto Moses, Take unto thee sweet spices, stacte, and onycha, and galbanum; [these] sweet spices with pure frankincense: of each shall there be a like [weight]:35And thou shalt make it a perfume, a confection after the art of the apothecary, tempered together, pure [and] holy:36And thou shalt beat [some] of it very small, and put of it before the testimony in the tabernacle of the congregation, where I will meet with thee: it shall be unto you most holy.37And [as for] the perfume which thou shalt make, ye shall not make to yourselves according to the composition thereof: it shall be unto thee holy for the LORD.38Whosoever shall make like unto that, to smell thereto, shall even be cut off from his people.

Exodus 30:27 And the table and all his vessels, and the candlestick and his vessels, and the altar of incense,
The holy anointing oil, The perfume.
Directions are here given for making the holy anointing oil, and the incense to be used in the service of the tabernacle. To show the excellencies of holiness, there was this spiced oil in the tabernacle, which was grateful to the sight and to the smell. Christ’s name is as ointment poured forth, [Song 1:3], and the good name of Christians is like precious ointment, [Eccl 7:1]. The incense burned upon the golden altar was prepared of sweet spices. When it was used, it was to be beaten very small; thus it pleased the Lord to bruise the Redeemer, when he offered himself for a sacrifice of a sweet-smelling savor. The like should not be made for any common use. Thus God would keep in the people’s minds reverence for his own services, and teach us not to profane or abuse any thing whereby God makes himself known. It is a great affront to God to jest with sacred things, and to make sport with his word and ordinances. It is most dangerous and fatal to use professions of the gospel of Christ to forward worldly interests.

Christ’s name is as ointment poured forth, [Song 1:3], and the good name of Christians is like precious ointment, [Eccl 7:1]. The incense burned upon the golden altar was prepared of sweet spices. When it was used, it was to be beaten very small; thus it pleased the Lord to bruise the Redeemer, when he offered himself for a sacrifice of a sweet-smelling savor. The like should not be made for any common use. Thus God would keep in the people’s minds reverence for his own services, and teach us not to profane or abuse any thing whereby God makes himself known. It is a great affront to God to jest with sacred things, and to make sport with his word and ordinances. It is most dangerous and fatal to use professions of the gospel of Christ to forward worldly interests.
