Description
Two carved altar furnishings stand as sacred objects of Old Testament worship, each crowned with a raised horn form that recalls the horns of the altar described in the tabernacle and temple traditions. In Scripture, altar horns were associated with sacrifice, intercession, consecration, and the place where atoning blood was applied by the priest. The strong wooden forms and elevated horned tops point to the ordered holiness of Israel’s sanctuary worship, where God provided a visible pattern for approach, cleansing, and covenant devotion.
This artwork is suited for teaching on the Tabernacle, priestly ministry, biblical sacrifice, and the symbolism of refuge and atonement. It can support Bible lessons from Exodus and Leviticus, especially studies explaining how the altar prefigures the need for mediation, holiness, and reconciliation with God.
