Old Testament

New Testament

Exodus 27:1-8 New Century Version (NCV)

1. “Make an altar of acacia wood, four and one-half feet high. It should be square—seven and one-half feet long and seven and one-half feet wide.

2. Make each of the four corners of the altar stick out like a horn, in such a way that the corners with their horns are all one piece. Then cover the whole altar with bronze.

3. “Use bronze to make all the tools and dishes that will be used on the altar: the pots to remove the ashes, the shovels, the bowls for sprinkling blood, the meat forks, and the pans for carrying the burning wood.

4. “Make a large bronze screen to hold the burning wood, and put a bronze ring at each of the four corners of it.

5. Put the screen inside the altar, under its rim, halfway up from the bottom.

6. “Make poles of acacia wood for the altar, and cover them with bronze.

7. Put the poles through the rings on both sides of the altar to carry it.

8. Make the altar out of boards and leave the inside hollow. Make it as you were shown on the mountain.
