If then you are making an offering at the altar and there it comes to your mind that your brother has something against you,

While your offering is still before the altar, first go and make peace with your brother, then come and make your offering.

And, Whoever takes an oath by the altar, it is nothing; but whoever takes an oath by the offering which is on it, he is responsible.

You blind ones: which is greater, the offering, or the altar which makes the offering holy

He, then, who takes an oath by the altar, takes it by the altar and by all things on it.

So that on you may come all the blood of the upright on the earth, from the blood of upright Abel to the blood of Zachariah, son of Barachiah, whom you put to death between the Temple and the altar.
