Then said he unto me, "The chambers toward the north and the south which stand before the back building: those be holy habitations, wherein the priests that do service before the LORD must eat the most holy offerings. And there must they lay the most holy offerings: meat offerings, sin offerings and the trespass offerings, for it is a holy place.

Again, it shall be the prince's part to offer burnt offerings, meat offerings, and drink offerings unto the LORD, in the holy days, new Moons, Sabbaths, and in all the high feasts of the house of Israel. The sin offering, meat offering, burnt offering and health offering shall he give, to reconcile the house of Israel.

In the door porch, there stood on either side two tables for the slaughtering; to slay the burnt offerings, sin offerings, and trespass offerings thereupon.

Four tables were of hewn stone for the burnt offerings, of a cubit and a half long and broad, and one cubit high: whereupon were laid the vessels and ornaments, which were used to the burnt and the slain offerings, when they were slaughtered.

When these days are expired, then upon the eighth day and so forth, the priests shall offer their burnt offerings and health offerings upon the altar, so will I be merciful unto you, sayeth the LORD God."

Then said he unto me, "This is the place, where the priests shall seethe the trespass and sin offerings, and bake the meat offerings: that they need not bear them in to the outward court, and so to unhallow the people."
