The Altar
13 “These are the measurements of the altar(B) in units of length (each unit being the standard length plus three inches(C)):[a] the gutter is 21 inches[b] deep and 21 inches wide, with a rim of nine inches[c] around its edge. This is the base[d] of the altar. 14 The distance from the gutter on the ground to the lower ledge is 3½ feet,[e] and the width of the ledge is 21 inches.[f] There are seven feet[g] from the small ledge to the large ledge, whose width is also 21 inches.
