Contextual Overview

25 Then he made the altar for burning special perfume of acacia wood. It was one cubit long, one cubit wide, and as high as a man's waist. Its horns were of one piece with it. 26 He covered its top, all its sides and its horns with pure gold. And he made a piece of gold to go around it. 27 Then he made two gold rings to put under this piece. He put one on the altar's left side and one on its right side to hold the long pieces of wood used for carrying it. 28 He made the long pieces of acacia wood and covered them with gold. 29 And he made the holy oil for pouring, and the pure, sweet-smelling perfume of spices, the work of an able workman.
