🔥 Exodus 38

Exodus 38 is a real chapter from the Old Testament. It starts, “He made the altar of burnt offering of acacia wood. It was square. Its length was five cubits, its width was five cubits, and its height was three cubits.” That is not a motto invented for a poster. It is the first sentence a family hears when this page is opened at night.

Keep going a little further. The chapter also says, “All the hangings around the court were of fine twined linen.” Exodus 38 opens with these words: “He made the altar of burnt offering of acacia wood. It was square. Its length was five cubits, its width was five cubits, and its height…” The line to keep is Exodus 38:1: “He made the altar of burnt offering of acacia wood. It was square. Its length was five cubits, its width was five cubits, and its height was three cubits.” Carry the word “altar” from that verse into the rest of the day.

The line worth learning out loud is Exodus 38:1: “He made the altar of burnt offering of acacia wood. It was square. Its length was five cubits, its width was five cubits, and its height was three cubits.” If the rest of the chapter feels crowded, hold that one sentence until the room is quiet.

What happens first in Exodus 38? Then try this: Read “He made the altar of burnt offering of acacia wood. It was square. Its length was five cubits, its width was…” once more. What does it show you about God? You do not have to finish every verse. You can close the book after the memory verse and still have read the Bible together.
