⁴ When the priest takes the basket from your hand and sets it down before the altar of the Lord your God,

¹⁰ We have an altar from which those who officiate in the tent^[a] have no right to eat.^{(A) 11} For the bodies of those animals whose blood is brought into the sanctuary by the high priest as a sacrifice for sin are burned outside the camp.^{(B) 12} Therefore Jesus also suffered outside the city gate in order to sanctify the people by his own blood.^(C)

¹⁹ How blind you are! For which is greater, the gift or the altar that makes the gift sacred?^(A)

²³ So when you are offering your gift at the altar, if you remember that your brother or sister has something against you,^{(A) 24} leave your gift there before the altar and go; first be reconciled to your brother or sister, and then come and offer your gift.
