2 Kings 16:15-16

Context
16:15 King Ahaz ordered Uriah the priest, “On the large altar 1  offer the morning burnt sacrifice, the evening grain offering, the royal burnt sacrifices and grain offering, the burnt sacrifice for all the people of Israel, their grain offering, and their libations. Sprinkle all the blood of the burnt sacrifice and other sacrifices on it. The bronze altar will be for my personal use.” 2  16:16 So Uriah the priest did exactly as 3  King Ahaz ordered.

1 tn That is, the newly constructed altar.

2 tn Heb “for me to seek.” The precise meaning of בָּקַר (baqar), “seek,” is uncertain in this context. For discussion see M. Cogan and H. Tadmor, II Kings (AB), 189.

3 tn Heb “according to all which.”
