Altar in Solomon's Temple: Removed by Ahaz, and One of Idolatrous Fashion Substituted
Source: Nav
2 Kings 16:14–17
He also took the bronze altar that stood before the LORD from the front of the temple (between the new altar and the house of the LORD) and he put it on the north side of the new altar. / Then King Ahaz commanded Uriah the priest, “Offer on the great altar the morning burnt offering, the evening grain offering, and the king’s burnt offering and grain offering, as well as the burnt offerings, grain offerings, and drink offerings of all the people of the land. Sprinkle on the altar all the blood of the burnt offerings and sacrifices. But I will use the bronze altar to seek guidance.” / So Uriah the priest did just as King Ahaz had commanded.
