Bronze Grating

In the middle of the altar, half-way down, there was placed a grating of bronze, upon which the sacrifice was laid and tied to rings and then consumed.

- The sacrifice therefore was in the altar and not on it.

- The grating was the same height from the ground as the mercy seat. Equal mercy and judgement:

Ps 101:1 I will sing of mercy and judgment: unto thee, O LORD, will I sing.

Rom 11:22 Therefore consider the goodness and severity of God: on those who fell, severity; but toward you, goodness, if you continue in His goodness. Otherwise you also will be cut off.
