Consecrating the Altar
18 And He said to me, “Son of man, thus says the Lord God: ‘These are the ordinances for the altar on the day when it is made, for sacrificing (B)burnt offerings on it, and for (C)sprinkling blood on it. 19 You shall give (D)a young bull for a sin offering to (E)the priests, the Levites, who are of the seed of (F)Zadok, who approach Me to minister to Me,’ says the Lord God.
