Exodus 27:6 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 27:6

And thou shalt make staves for the altar, staves of shittim

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

Exodus 27:6 In-Context

5 Which thou shalt put under the hearth of the altar: and the grate shall be even to the midst of the altar.
