Exo 30:7 | MHM | STEP | v. 7-8 : Aaron, the high priest, was to burn sweet incense on this altar every morning and every evening, using about half a pound each time ( v. 7, 8 ). The incense would cover the smell from the burnt offerings outside and show that God accepted the worship of His people. The daily incense reminds us that our prayers and good works should be pleasing to God, just as the smoke was sweet to Him.
