Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 37. - Seven days shalt thou make an atonement. All the ceremonial was to be repeated seven times, not only the atonement for the altar (Leviticus 8:33). An altar most holy. Literally, "holiness of holinesses," as in Exodus 40:10. Whatever toucheth the altar shall be holy. Rather, "must be holy." Nothing that is not holy must touch it (Kalisch). CHAPTER 29:38-42

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(37) An altar most holy.--Heb., an altar, holiness of holinesses.Whatsoever toucheth the altar shall be holy.--Rather, must be holy; nothing which is not holy must touch it. The future has the force of an imperative, as in the Ten Commandments.
