# earthen altar
an altar made of materials from the ground, such as stone, soil, or clay
# cause my name to be honored
Here "name" is a metonym for God's being. This can be stated in active form. AT: "choose for you to honor me" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-activepassive]])
# You must not go up by steps to my altar
"Do not make an altar that has steps"
# exposing your private parts
"showing your naked body"
