Exodus 27:6 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 27:6

And thou shalt make staves for the altar, staves of shittim
wood
Like those that were made for the ark, and for the same purpose:

and overlay them with brass;
with plates of brass, whereas those for the ark were overlaid with gold.

Exodus 27:6 In-Context

4 And make a network of brass, with four brass rings at its four angles.

5 And put the network under the shelf round the altar so that the net comes half-way up the altar.

6 And make rods for the altar, of hard wood, plated with brass.

7 And put the rods through the rings at the two opposite sides of the altar, for lifting it.

8 The altar is to be hollow, boarded in with wood; make it from the design which you saw on the mountain.
