"Also, you shall make its pans to receive its ashes, and its shovels and its basins and its for and its firepans; you shall make all its utensils of bronze." v.3
Read chapter 27
Here we have the instructions for building the altar of burnt offerings. This was inside the Tabernacle but outside the Holy Place and Holiest of Holies - so the courtyard. Everyone that God commands them to build for the Tabernacle is very detailed and for a purpose. Every thing has rings on it so that poles can fit in and it can be carried and easily transported. Here with the altar of burnt offerings, God supplied them the instructions for overeating they'd ned when offering burnt sacrifices. Pans to receive the ashes, shovels to clear away ashes that scattered, basins for receiving the blood of the sacrifice, forks for adjusting pieces of the sacrifice, and firepans to carry burning embers from the brazen altar to altar of incense. The Lord thought of everything! How often I have a plan to build a simple fire on a camping trip and cook dinner and bound to forget something. Also, all utensils are to be made of bronze - no common tool was to be used for holy tasks. Things set apart specifically for serving God. God cares about the details in your life and provides. So how do you use too in your life the Lord's provided for you to worship Him? Are you using your "finest" tools for Him or your "leftover" stuff? God's not vague in His plan for the world. Search His word for those details and se how He's provided.
