Altar » Mosaic commandments prescribing the construction of
An altar of earth you shall make to Me and sacrifice on it your burnt offerings and your peace offerings, your sheep and your oxen. In every place where I record My name and cause it to be remembered I will come to you and bless you.

Neither shall you go up by steps to My altar, that your nakedness be not exposed upon it.
