He made the Altar of Whole-Burnt-Offering from acacia wood. He made it seven and a half feet square and four and a half feet high.
2
He made horns at each of the four corners. The horns were made of one piece with the Altar and covered with a veneer of bronze.

He made from bronze all the utensils for the Altar: the buckets for removing the ashes, shovels, basins, forks, and fire pans.
4
He made a grate of bronze mesh under the ledge halfway up the Altar.
5
He cast four rings at each of the four corners of the bronze grating to hold the poles.
