Exodus 38:5

The Holy Bible, Berean Study Bible

Contextual Overview

¹Bezalel constructed the altar of burnt offering from acacia wood. It was square, five cubits long, five cubits wide, and three cubits high. ²He made a horn at each of its four corners, so that the horns and altar were of one piece, and he overlaid the altar with bronze. ³He made all the altar's utensils of bronze-its pots, shovels, basins, meat forks, and firepans. ⁴He made a grate of bronze mesh for the altar under its ledge, halfway up from the bottom. ⁵At the four corners of the bronze grate he cast four rings as holders for the poles.⁶And he made the poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with bronze. ⁷Then he inserted the poles into the rings on the sides of the altar for carrying it. He made the altar with boards so that it was hollow. ⁸Next, he made the bronze basin and its stand from the mirrors of the women who served at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.
