“Jesus was not anointed with oil, but with the gift of grace, which is signified by the visible oil with which the Church anoints those who are baptized. Yet Christ was not anointed with the Holy Spirit at the time when it descended as a dove upon him at his baptism, for at that time he condescended to prefigure his body, that is, his Church, in which the baptized principally receive the Holy Spirit. “
(Venerable Bede, ‘Commentary on Acts’)
