I postawili ji na podstawkach jego, iż się bali narodów postronnych i sprawowali na nim ofiary palone Panu, tak rano jako i w wieczór.
Postawili oni ten ołtarz na jego dawnym miejscu. Przynaglił ich do tego lęk wobec ościennych ludów. Zaczęli na nim składać ofiary całopalne dla PANA rano i wieczorem.
Postawili tą ofiarnicę na jej fundamencie i choć bali się obcych narodów, jednak ofiarowali na niej całopalenia dla Pana, całopalenia rano i wieczorem.
A gdy postawili on ołtarz na fundamencie swym, choć się bali narodów postronnych, jednak ofiarowali na nim całopalenia Panu, całopalenia rano i w wieczór.
Potem postawili ołtarz na swoich fundamentach i chociaż bali się sąsiednich narodów, składali na nim PANU całopalenia – rano i wieczorem.
A gdy postawili ten ołtarz na jego dawnym miejscu, mimo wrogiej postawy obcych ludów, składali na nim ofiary całopalne Panu, ofiary całopalne rano i wieczorem.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And they set the altar upon his bases,.... Which might remain of the old altar; or the meaning is, that it was fixed and settled on the same spot where it stood before:
for fear was upon them, because of the people of those countries; and therefore they hastened to erect an altar, and offer sacrifices to the Lord, in hope that he would appear for them, and help them against their enemies; or rather, as some render the words q "though fear was upon them", c. yet they were not deterred from the work, worship, and service of God:
and they offered burnt offerings unto the Lord, even burnt offerings, morning and evening the daily sacrifice, as directed to
Exodus 29:38.
q ×× "quamvis", Junius & Tremellius, Piscator, Patrick.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Upon his bases - They restored the old altar of burnt-offerings, which stood directly in front of the temple-porch, upon the old foundation. This became apparent on the clearing away of the ruins, and on a careful examination of the site.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Ezra 3:3. They set the altar upon his bases — Rebuilt it on the same spot on which it had formerly stood. As it was necessary to keep up the Divine worship during the time they should be employed in re-edifying the temple, they first reared this altar of burnt-offerings; and all this they did, "though fear was upon them," because of the unfriendly disposition of their surrounding neighbours.
