This started clear back in the book of Genesis. Right from the beginning God taught Adam and Eve that if any sinful person was to have a relationship with Him, something must die as a substitute so that the people could live. This all pointed of course to Jesus Christ. This all prefigured Him and what He would do in order to save us. When God designed the sanctuary, it was critical that His people realize this point right up front. So He specifically demanded that there be an altar so that animal sacrifices could be made. This altar would be located just yards away from the very Presence of God and it was impossible to get into the presence of God by bypassing this altar. Now what this altar actually turns out to be is a very large outdoor grill. The animal needed to be killed in the presence of God and then it needed to be cooked in the presence of God and in order for that to happen, there needed to be a big outdoor grill, which is called the “Bronze Altar.” (Ex 38:30, 39:39) Anytime any person was in this sanctuary complex, they had to see this altar. Anytime a priest went into the sanctuary, he had to walk right by this altar. This altar teaches that you cannot possibly get into the presence of God without the purity that is needed in a sacrifice that has been offered. If one is going into the presence of God, sin must be addressed and it must be forgiven. (Sermon) And you shall make the altar of acacia wood, five cubits long and five cubits wide; the altar shall be square, and its height shall be three cubits - In The picture above depicts the altar on the right side (toward the East) of the courtyard and it is a square structure 7.5 ft by 7.5 ft and 4.5 ft tall, considerably bigger than the mercy seat (3' 9" long and 2' 3" wide -see Ex 25:17NET). This altar is difference from the descriptions of the altars in Exodus 20:24-26 and Ex 24:4. This altar is called the bronze altar, the brazen altar or the altar of burnt offering (cf Ex 38:1, Lev 4:7, 10, 18+). The placement of the brazen altar is given in Exodus 40:6 “You shall set the altar of burnt offering in front of the doorway of the tabernacle of the tent of meeting." The altar was a perfect square, in contrast to pagan altars discovered that are round and an Assyrian altarin Nineveh that was triangular. When Solomon built the temple, the altar was a perfect square (2 Chr 4:1) Alan
