EXODUS—NOTE ON Exodus 27:1 This altar made of wood and overlaid with bronze is referred to later by its function: “the altar of burnt offering” (Exodus 38:1). The altar was placed before the door of the tabernacle, with the bronze basin between them (Exodus 40:6). The altar and the bronze basin were the only two items in the tabernacle courtyard (see illustration of the bronze altar). This is where the priests will offer sacrifices (see Leviticus 1:1).
