Exodus 30:7-9
The incense altar was within the Holy Place—the first room of the Tabernacle, and also in the Temple. It was placed against the back wall against the veil that separated the Holy Place from the Most Holy Place. It stood directly in front of the Mercy Seat and the Ark. A priest burned incense on it twice a day—morning and evening—using burning coals that had been taken from under the brazen altar. Incense offered could not be profane either. The only incense acceptable was that made to God's specification.
Exodus 30:7-10
It was on that little altar that the incense was burned that represents your prayers. The instructions were clear. The altar is declared to be most holy. When they offered strange fire, they were acting in clear defiance of God. It was an act of blatant rebellion, an inexcusable profanation of a most holy thing; an act of treason, a sin of arrogance.
Exodus 30:7-9
This is a little vignette about the incense altar which was inside the first room of the Tabernacle. It stood right in front of the veil that separated the first room from the second room. Every day, morning and evening, the high priest had to go in and put incense on that fire.
