Exodus 27:1-9

1“You are to construct the altar of acacia wood. The altar must be square, 7½ feet long, and 7½ feet wide; it must be 4½ feet high.

2Make horns for it on its four corners; the horns are to be of one piece. Overlay it with bronze.

3Make its pots for removing ashes, and its shovels, basins, meat forks, and firepans; make all its utensils of bronze.

4Construct a grate for it of bronze mesh, and make four bronze rings on the mesh at its four corners.

5Set it below, under the altar’s ledge, so that the mesh comes halfway up the altar.

6Then make poles for the altar, poles of acacia wood, and overlay them with bronze.

7The poles are to be inserted into the rings so that the poles are on two sides of the altar when it is carried.

8Construct the altar with boards so that it is hollow. They are to make it just as it was shown to you on the mountain.

9“You are to make the courtyard for the tabernacle. Make hangings for the south side of the courtyard out of finely spun linen, 150 feet long on that side
