2 Kings 16:13

13 et libavit libamina et fudit sanguinem pacificorum quae obtulerat super altare

2 Kings 16:13 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 16:13

And he burnt his burnt offering, and his meat offering
Which went together according to the law of God, and was imitated by the Heathens:

and poured his drink offering;
a libation of wine, as probably it was, like what they used according to the Levitical law:

and sprinkled the blood of his peace offerings upon the altar;
as used according to the same law; for all sorts of sacrifices were offered by idolaters, as by the people of God, in imitation of them.

2 Kings 16:13 In-Context

11 extruxitque Urias sacerdos altare iuxta omnia quae praeceperat rex Ahaz de Damasco ita fecit Urias sacerdos donec veniret rex Ahaz de Damasco

12 cumque venisset rex de Damasco vidit altare et veneratus est illud ascenditque et immolavit holocausta et sacrificium suum

13 et libavit libamina et fudit sanguinem pacificorum quae obtulerat super altare

14 porro altare aeneum quod erat coram Domino transtulit de facie templi et de loco altaris et de loco templi Domini posuitque illud ex latere altaris ad aquilonem

15 praecepit quoque rex Ahaz Uriae sacerdoti dicens super altare maius offer holocaustum matutinum et sacrificium vespertinum et holocaustum regis et sacrificium eius et holocaustum universi populi terrae et sacrificia eorum et libamina eorum et omnem sanguinem holocausti et universum sanguinem victimae super illud effundes altare vero aeneum erit paratum ad voluntatem meam
