EX 20:24-26 Altar and Sacrifice Law

Law

• You shall make an altar of earth for me, and shall sacrifice on it your burnt offerings and your peace offerings, your sheep and your cattle. 

• If you make me an altar of stone, you shall not build it of hewn stones;

• You shall not go up by steps to my altar,

Judgement

• If you make me an altar of stone, you shall not build it of hewn stones; for if you lift up your tool on it, you have polluted it.

• You shall not go up by steps to my altar, that your nakedness be not exposed.

Biblical Example

• This is a biblical example of the Altar and Sacrifice Law being followed.

Moses wrote all YHWH’s words, then rose up early in the morning and built an altar at the base of the mountain, with twelve pillars for the twelve tribes of Israel. 5 He sent young men of the children of Israel, who offered burnt offerings and sacrificed peace offerings of cattle to YHWH.
