No blood was ever sprinkled on this altar, except once a year, on the grand day of expiation. It was called also the golden altar (Nu 4:11); and the incense was as constantly burnt on it every day, as the morning and evening sacrifice of a lamb was burnt on the brazen altar. the horns.27:2 overlay it.25:11,24top.

This repetition, as Dr. Kennicott observes, places the altar of incense before the mercy-seat, and consequently in the Holy of Holies! Now this could not be, as the altar of incense was attended every day, and the Holy of Holies entered only once in the year. The five words which appear to be a repetition are wanting in twenty-six of Kennicott's and Rossi's MSS. and in the Samaritan Text. 25:21,22; Le 16:13; 1Ch 28:11; Heb 4:16; 9:5I will.36; 29:42,43; Nu 17:4 sweet incense.

As it was five cubits long and five cubits broad, and three cubits high, if the cubit be reckoned at 21 inches, it must have been eight feet nine inches square, and about five feet three inches in height. 27:1-8; 40:6,29; 2Ch 4:1; Eze 43:13-17; Ro 8:3,4; 12:1; Heb 3:1Heb 9:14; 13:10; 1Pe 2:5foursquare; and three cubits the height thereof.Eze 43:16; Joh 6:37; Heb 13:8; Re 21:16 he made.27:2brass.Job 6:12 he made.27:3flesh-hooks.1Sa 2:13 4 the grate.27:4 25:6; De 10:3 to bear it withal.Ac 9:15; 1Co 1:24; 2:2
