The Altar of Incense

The Altar of Incense

(Exodus 37:25–29)


30“You are also to make an altar of acacia wood for the burning of incense. 2It is to be square, a cubit long, a cubit wide, and two cubits high.[fn] Its horns must be of one piece. 3Overlay with pure gold the top and all the sides and horns, and make a molding of gold around it. 4And make two gold rings below the molding on opposite sides to hold the poles used to carry it. 5Make the poles of acacia wood and overlay them with gold.


6Place the altar in front of the veil that is before the ark of the Testimony [fn]—before the mercy seat that is over the Testimony—where I will meet with you. 7And Aaron is to burn fragrant incense on it every morning when he tends the lamps. 8When Aaron sets up the lamps at twilight,[fn] he must burn the incense perpetually before the LORD for the generations to come. 9On this altar you must not offer unauthorized [fn] incense or a burnt offering or grain offering; nor are you to pour a drink offering on it.


10Once a year Aaron shall make atonement on the horns of the altar. Throughout your generations he shall make atonement on it annually with the blood of the sin offering [fn] of atonement. The altar is most holy to the LORD.”


30:2 The altar was approximately 1.5 feet in length and width, and 3 feet high (45.7 centimeters in length and width, and 91.4 centimeters high).

30:6 That is, the ark of the covenant; also in verse 26

30:8 Hebrew between the two evenings

30:9 Or strange

30:10 Or purification offering
