Exodus 27: ?’s Blood on the Bronze Altar-Path to God - a podcast by KFUO Radio

Rev. John Lukomski, retired LCMS pastor and co-host of Wrestling with the Basics on KFUO Radio, joins host Rev. AJ Espinosa to study Exodus 27.

“The altar shall be square, and its height shall be three cubits. And you shall make horns for it on its four corners; its horns shall be of one piece with it, and you shall overlay it with bronze.” That’s a really big portable grill, but it had to be for oxen! Exodus 27 shows how, at every turn, the details of the Tabernacle are practical, because God is King of the whole created order. Yet bronze is also theological, the metal that symbolizes sinners’ holy approach to God—and that approach begins at an altar of sacrifice. The crimson veil and screen were royal and yet evocative of blood, a shadow of how Christ the king’s own blood would allow all people to approach God.
