Exegesis
The direct object marker ʾēt {אֶת־ | ʾēṯ} identifies the specific object. The construct qeren ha-shemen introduces the anointing horn as a ritual instrument.
In context — 1 Samuel 16:13
And Samuel took the horn of oil and anointed him in the midst of his brothers , and the Spirit of the LORD came mightily upon David from that day onward. Then Samuel rose and went to Ramah.
