altar in Genesis 26
ALL-ter
This thing shows up in Genesis 26:25: “He built an altar there, and called on Yahweh’s name, and pitched his tent there. There Isaac’s servants dug a well.” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real thing in a real place.
Genesis 26:25
“He built an altar there, and called on Yahweh’s name, and pitched his tent there. There Isaac’s servants dug a well.”
