Day 80 - Exodus : Chapter 30

Exodus 30 : Instructions for the Altar

Israelites are to make an altar out of acacia wood, for burning incense. It is to be square 18 X 18 X 36 inches with projections on corners. Its top has to be covered with pure gold. This has to be kept outside the curtain which hangs in front of the Covenant Box. That is the place where God will meet the people. Aaron has to perform purification of the altar once every year.

The Lord tells Moses that he is to take census every year each man is to pay God a price for his life, since God saved them from Egypt.

God also gives instructions about making a bronze basin for priests to wash their hands, oil to anoint sacred items, incense in front of the ark.
