Exodus 38:4
2 He made a horn at each of its four corners, so that the horns and altar were of one piece, and he overlaid the altar with bronze.
3 He made all the altar’s utensils of bronze—its pots, shovels, sprinkling bowls, meat forks, and firepans.
He made a grate of bronze mesh for the altar under its ledge, halfway up from the bottom.
5 At the four corners of the bronze grate he cast four rings as holders for the poles.
6 And he made the poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with bronze.
This was said to Israel at a particular time, so it is wise to read it together with the surrounding text. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
