Exodus 27:1-2

Expanded Bible

The Altar for the Burnt Offerings

27 “Make an altar of acacia wood, ·four and one-half feet [^Lthree cubits] high. It should be square—·seven and one-half feet [^Lfive cubits] long and ·seven and one-half feet [^Lfive cubits] wide. ² Make each of the four corners of the altar stick out like a horn [^Csignificance uncertain, but refers to rounded projections on each corner of top; 29:10–12; Lev. 4:18–21; 1 Kin. 2:28–34], in such a way that the corners with their horns are all one piece. Then ·cover [overlay] the whole altar with bronze.
