Laws for the Offerings: The Burnt Offering

Leviticus 6:8-13
8
ADONAI said to Moshe,
9
"Give this order to Aharon and his sons: 'This is the law for the burnt offering [Hebrew: 'olah]: it is what goes up [Hebrew: 'olah] on its firewood upon the altar all night long, until morning; in this way the fire of the altar will be kept burning.
10
When the fire has consumed the burnt offering on the altar, the cohen, having put on his linen garment and covered himself with his linen shorts, is to remove the ashes and put them beside the altar.
11
Then he is to remove those garments and put on others, before carrying the ashes outside the camp to a clean place.
12
In this way, the fire on the altar will be kept burning and not be allowed to go out. Each morning, the cohen is to kindle wood on it, arrange the burnt offering and make the fat of the peace offerings go up in smoke.
13
Fire is to be kept burning on the altar continually; it is not to go out.
