The Altar of Incense
“And thou shalt make an altar to burn incense upon: of shittim wood shalt thou make it.”
Exodus 30:1 (KJV)
Commentary on Exodus 30:1
The golden altar for burning incense, made of acacia wood overlaid with gold—again the pattern of humanity (wood) and deity (gold) united. This altar stands in the Holy Place before the veil, representing prayer and worship ascending to God. The Hebrew קְטֹרֶת (qetoret, incense) symbolizes prayer (Psalm 141:2, Revelation 5:8). Christ, our intercessor, causes our prayers to ascend acceptably to God, adding His incense (perfect prayer) to ours.
