Exodus 37:27 In-Context

25 He made also the altar of incense, of the wood of shittim, having a cubit by square, that is, on each side one cubit, and two cubits in height, of whose corners came forth horns. (And he made the altar of incense out of shittim wood, one cubit square, that is, one cubit on each side, and two cubits in height, out of whose corners the horns came forth.)
26 And he covered it with cleanest gold, and the griddle, and (the) walls, and the horns (thereof); and he made to it a little golden crown by compass, (And he covered it with pure gold, yea, its top, and its walls, and its horns; and he put a gold band all around it,)
27 and two golden rings under the crown, by each side, that [the] bars be put into those, and the altar may be borne. (and he made two gold rings to be fastened under the band, on each side of the altar, for bars to be put through, so that the altar could be carried.)
28 Forsooth he made those bars (out) of the wood of shittim, and covered them with golden plates.
29 He made also oil to the ointment of hallowing, and [the] incense of sweet smelling spiceries, most clean, by the work of (the) apothecary. (And he made the holy oil for anointing, and the pure incense of sweet smelling spices, by the work of an apothecary.)
