The oil for the lamp Make all its utensils of bronze The directive to use bronze for the utensils of the altar is significant. Bronze, a durable and resilient metal, symbolizes strength and endurance. In the ancient Near East, bronze was commonly used for tools and weapons, indicating its reliability and value. The use of bronze here underscores the importance of the altar's function in the sacrificial system, as it needed to withstand the intense heat and continual use. Spiritually, bronze can also represent judgment and purification, as seen in the bronze serpent in Numbers 21:9, which foreshadows Christ's redemptive work. its pots for removing ashes its shovels its sprinkling bowls its meat forks its firepans Persons / Places / Events 1. MosesThe leader of the Israelites who received the instructions for the Tabernacle from God on Mount Sinai. 2. Israelites The chosen people of God, who were to construct the Tabernacle as a place of worship during their journey in the wilderness. 3. Tabernacle The portable sanctuary where the Israelites worshiped God, and where these bronze utensils were to be used. 4. Altar of Burnt Offering The specific altar for which these bronze utensils were made, used for sacrifices and offerings to God. 5. Bronze A metal symbolizing strength and judgment, used extensively in the construction of the Tabernacle's outer elements. Teaching Points Symbolism of BronzeBronze, used for the altar and its utensils, symbolizes judgment and endurance. Reflect on how God's judgment is both just and merciful, and how we are called to endure in faith. Attention to Detail in Worship God's detailed instructions for the Tabernacle remind us of the importance of reverence and precision in our worship practices. Consider how we can honor God through careful attention to our spiritual disciplines. Role of Sacrifice The utensils were used in the sacrificial system, pointing to the necessity of atonement for sin. Reflect on how Christ's sacrifice fulfills this need and how we can live in gratitude for His atonement. Community and Worship The construction and use of the Tabernacle involved the entire community of Israel. Consider how our worship today involves and impacts our faith community. Preparation for Service Just as the utensils were prepared for specific purposes, we are called to prepare ourselves for service in God's kingdom. Reflect on how you can be ready and equipped for the tasks God has for you.(3) His pans to receive his ashes.--Scuttles, in which the ashes were placed for removal from the sanctuary, are intended. The word translated "to receive his ashes" is a rare one, and implies a mixture with the ashes of unburnt fat. His shovels.--A right rendering. The "shovels" would be used in clearing away the ashes from off the altar. His basons.--Basins were needed to receive the blood of the victims (Exodus 24:6), which was cast from basins upon the foot of the altar. His fleshhooks.--Implements with three prongs, used for arranging the pieces of the victim upon the altar. The priests' servants sometimes applied them to a different purpose (1Samuel 2:13). His firepans.--The word here used is elsewhere translated either "snuffdishes," or "censers." Probably vessels employed in carrying embers from the brazen altar to the altar of incense (Leviticus 16:12) are intended. Verse 3. - His pans to receive his ashes. Literally, "to cleanse it from fat' - i.e., to receive what remained after burning the victims, which would be ashes mixed with a good deal of fat. His shovels. Those would be used in removing the ashes from the altar, and depositing them in the pans. His basins. Vessels for receiving the blood of the victims and from which it was poured on the altar. Compare Exodus 24:6. His flesh hooks. So the Septuagint, and our translators again in 1 Samuel 2:13. They would seem by the latter passage to have been three-pronged forks, the proper use of which was, no doubt, to arrange the various pieces, into which the victim was cut, upon the altar. His fire-pans. The word used is generally translated "censers" (Leviticus 10:1; Leviticus 16:12; Numbers 4:14: 16:6, 17, etc.), but sometimes "snuff-dishes" (Exodus 25:38; Exodus 37:23). It here perhaps designates the vessels used for carrying burning embers from the altar of burnt-offering, to the altar of incense on certain occasions (Leviticus 16:12). Etymologically, it means simply "a receptacle." All the vessels thereof thou shalt make of brass. Rather, "of bronze." Bronze was the usual material of utensils and implements in Egypt (Birch, Guide to British Museum, pp. 13-21; 28, 29; 35-41; etc.). Copper was scarcely used without the alloy of tin which converts it into bronze; and brass was wholly unknown. A trace of iron is sometimes found in Egyptian bronzeParallel Commentaries ...
