Exodus 20:20-22

Complete Jewish Bible

^20 (23) You are not to make with me gods of silver, nor are you to make gods of gold for yourselves. (S: Maftir) ^21 (24) For me you need make only an altar of earth; on it you will sacrifice your burnt offerings, peace offerings, sheep, goats and cattle. In every place where I cause my name to be mentioned, I will come to you and bless you. ^22 (25) If you do make me an altar of stone, you are not to build it of cut stones; for if you use a tool on it, you profane it.
