Rebuilding the altar

Ezra 3:1–6

3In the seventh month, the Israelis from their various cities, gathered together in unity in Yerushalem. 2Then Yotsadak’s son Yeshua and his brothers the priests, and Shealti’el’s son Zerubavel and his brothers, and they built the altar to offer up burnt offerings to Yisrael’s god on it as is written in the law of Mosheh, the man of God.[ref] 3They set the altar up on its foundation because they were worried about trouble from some of the other people groups in the region. Then they offered burnt offerings to Yahweh on it as well as the regular morning and evening burnt offerings.[ref] 4Then they observed the Celebration in Shelters as per the written instructions[ref] with a burnt offering each day as required. 5After that was over, they kept up the regular burnt offerings, plus those for the new moons and other times that Yahweh required, as well as any free-will offerings to Yahweh.[ref] 6Even though the temple foundation rebuilding hadn’t started yet, the people started sacrificing burnt offerings to Yahweh from the beginning of October.

Num 28:1-8:

28Then Yahweh told Mosheh (Moses), 2“Give the Israelis these instructions: Ensure that you present to me the offerings and food for offerings to be burnt at the proper time. 3For the daily burnt offering, present two one-year-old, male lambs that have no defects. 4One of those lambs must be offered in the morning, and the other in late afternoon, 5each offered along with a kilogram of fine flour mixed with a litre of olive oil. 6That’s the regular burnt offering done like the first one at Mt. Sinai—the soothing aroma from the fire will be pleasing to Yahweh. 7The drink offering must also be one litre for each lamb. That strong drink must be poured out in the sacred area as an offering to Yahweh. 8At the end of the afternoon, offer the second lamb with the same-sized offerings of flour and wine as in the morning. When they’re burnt, the aroma will be pleasing to Yahweh.
