Lev 6:9 | MHM | STEP | v. 9-11 : The priest must carefully take care of the ashes from the burnt-offering. Every morning, he must clear the altar of ashes and place them on the east side, away from the sanctuary. He wears his special linen garments for this, but then changes into other clothes to carry the ashes outside the camp to a clean place. This shows respect for God’s altar and teaches that even jobs that seem small are important when done for God. It also hints at the burial of Jesus, whose body was carefully placed in a clean tomb. Keeping the altar clean helps the fire burn well and honors God.
