Ezekiel 43:18-27 - The Consecration Of The Altar
18 And he said to me, Son of man, thus says lord LORD: These are the ordinances of the altar in the day when they shall make it, to offer burnt-offerings on it, and to sprinkle blood on it. 19 Thou shall give to the priests the Levites who are of the seed of Zadok, who are near to me, to minister to me, says lord LORD, a young bullock for a sin-offering. 20 And thou shall take of the blood of it, and put it on the four horns of it, and on the four corners of the ledge, and upon the border round about. Thus thou shall cleanse it and make atonement for it. 21 Thou shall also take the bullock of the sin-offering, and it shall be burnt in the appointed place of the house, outside the sanctuary.
22 And on the second day thou shall offer a he-goat without blemish for a sin-offering. And they shall cleanse the altar, as they cleansed it with the bullock. 23 When thou have made an end of cleansing it, thou shall offer a young bullock without blemish, and a ram out of the flock without blemish. 24 And thou shall bring them near before LORD, and the priests shall cast salt upon them, and they shall offer them up for a burnt-offering to LORD. 25 Seven days thou shall prepare each day a goat for a sin-offering. They shall also prepare a young bullock, and a ram out of the flock, without blemish. 26 Seven days they shall make atonement for the altar and purify it. So they shall consecrate it. 27 And when they have accomplished the days, it shall be that upon the eighth day, and forward, the priests shall make your burnt-offerings upon the altar, and your peace-offerings. And I will accept you, says lord LORD.
