Commentary on Exodus 27:5
The grate is placed 'under the compass of the altar beneath, that the network may be even to the midst of the altar.' This precise positioning—halfway up—ensures optimal burning. The attention to mechanics demonstrates that atonement, while spiritual, occurred in the material realm. Christ's death wasn't mystical abstraction but physical, historical event. The grate's exact placement prefigures how Christ's sacrifice occurred at the precise time, place, and manner God ordained (Galatians 4:4).
