Instructions about altars

Exo 20:22–26

20:22 Instructions about altars

22 Then Yahweh told Mosheh (Moses), “This is what you need to tell the Israelis: ‘You yourselves have seen that I, Yahweh, have talked with you from heaven. 23 You all mustn’t make gods out of silver or gold for yourselves to have alongside me. 24 You need to make an altar for me out of dirt, and then you can sacrifice your burnt offerings and peace offerings, and your sheep and cattle, on it. I’ll inform you about every place where I want to be worshipped and I’ll come to you and will bless you there. 25 If you do make me an altar with stones, you mustn’t use cut stones to build it because moving your tools over it will defile it.[ref] 26 And don’t use steps to get up to the altar because you might expose your private parts under your robes.

5 and build a stone altar there to offer sacrifices to your god Yahweh. Don’t use any iron tools to shape the stones.[ref] 6 You must built Yahweh’s altar with uncut stones.
