Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, Leviticus 6, verse 2. “Command Aaron and his sons, saying, ‘Now this is the law of the whole burnt offering: The whole burnt offering shall be on the hearth upon the altar all night until morning, and the fire of the altar shall be kept burning on it; it shall not be put out. Leviticus 6, verse 3. Then the priest shall put the linen trousers on his body; then he shall put on his linen garment, and take up the ashes of the whole burnt offering, which the fire consumed on the altar; and he shall put them beside the altar. Leviticus 6, verse 4. He shall then take off his linen garment, put on another one, and carry the ashes outside the camp to a clean place. Leviticus 6, verse 5. So the fire on the altar shall be burning; it shall not be put out. The priest shall burn wood on it every morning and put the whole burnt offering on it; and he shall burn on it the fat of the peace offering. Leviticus 6, verse 6. A fire shall always be burning on the altar; it shall never go out.
