Making the Altar of Burnt Offering

Exodus 38

1 BEZALEL MADE the burnt offering altar of acacia wood; its top was five cubits square and it was three cubits high. 2 He made its horns on the four corners of it; the horns were of one piece with it, and he overlaid it with bronze. 3 He made all the utensils and vessels of the altar, the pots, shovels, basins, forks or fleshhooks, and firepans; all its utensils and vessels he made of bronze. 4 And he made for the altar a bronze grate of network under its ledge, extending halfway down it. 5 He cast four rings for the four corners of the bronze grating to be places for the poles [with which to carry it]. 6 And he made the poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with bronze. 7 And he put the poles through the rings on the altar's sides with which to carry it; he made it hollow with planks.
