THE ALTAR OF INCENSE
The altar of incense occupied the middle space near to and in front
of the inner veil in the Holy place (Exodus 30:1-6; 37:25-28; 40:5).
In construction it was a simple box of acacia wood, two cubits high,
one cubit wide, and one cubit broad, with a top, and horns like the brazen al-
tar, the whole being covered with gold. It had no grate, because the fire did
not come directly in contact with it. It had a molding around the edge and
rings to carry it, and staves.
Upon this altar neither burnt offerings nor meat offerings were al-
lowed to be offered, nor drink offerings to be poured, but it was used exclu-
sively to burn incense upon morning and evening.
