Exodus 40:6 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 40:6

And thou shall set the altar of the burnt offering
Where the sacrifices of the people were to be brought, and offered up by the priests; and this was to be set up in the open court, as it was proper it should, both because of the smell and smoke of the sacrifices:

before the door of the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation;
just a little before the entrance into the holy place.

Exodus 40:6 In-Context

4 et inlata mensa pones super eam quae rite praecepta sunt candelabrum stabit cum lucernis suis
5 et altare aureum in quo adoletur incensum coram arca testimonii tentorium in introitu tabernaculi pones
6 et ante illud altare holocausti
7 labrum inter altare et tabernaculum quod implebis aqua
8 circumdabisque atrium tentoriis et ingressum eius
